with pressure (
in bar) for some gases are shown in the figure below. Identify the gases
and
respectively

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
The extent of deviation shown by real gases from ideal behaviour is measured in terms of compressibility fractor
which is mathematically defined as follows:

For ideal gases,
Easily liquefiable gases such as
exhibit larger deviation as compared to gases such as
