For a real gas, the force of interaction between molecules of a gas is different from force of interaction between molecules of the walls of the container and gas molecules (both gas and the container are in thermodynamic equilibrium). This indicates that:
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Due to the pressure difference, there would be systematic motion within the gas according to the
Newton's law. But as systematic motion is not possible, pressure must be uniform inside.
To make the pressure uniform inside, distribution of the molecules is changed.
