  • B
    $Z = 0$ for ideal gas,$Z = 1$ for real gas
  • C
    $Z = 1$ for real gas,$Z \neq 1$ for ideal gas

The given graph represents the variation of $Z$ (compressibility factor = $\frac{PV}{nRT}$) versus $P$,for three real gases $A, B$ and $C$. Identify the only incorrect statement.

For real gases,the van der Waals equation is written as $\left( p + \frac{a n^2}{V^2} \right) (V - nb) = nRT$,where $a$ and $b$ are van der Waals constants. Two sets of gases are:
$(I)$ $O_2, CO_2, H_2, He$
$(II)$ $CH_4, O_2, H_2$
The gases given in set-$I$ are arranged in increasing order of $b$,and the gases given in set-$II$ are arranged in decreasing order of $a$. Select the correct order from the following:

At Boyle's temperature,the compressibility factor $Z$ for a real gas is:

The following data is obtained for one mole of a gas. The gas deviates from ideal behavior in the pressure (in bar) range:
$P \text{ (bar)}$$\frac{PV}{RT}$
$1$$1$
$2$$1$
$3$$1$
$3.1$$1.2$
