CO 2 gas is liquefied at 27°C. Gas follows the following graph during liquefaction for 1 mole of CO 2 .

Then which statement is (are) correct in gaseous phase will
(i) The maximum density of gas is 0.1 gm/ml
(ii) The density of liquid CO 2 is 1 g/ml at 60 atm.
(iii) At point C 50% of CO 2 is liquefied.
(iv) The compressibility factor of gas at 27° C is always less than 1.
Which of the above is/are correct
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsC
i,ii and iii
Maximum density of CO 2 in gaseous phase will be at point 'A'
Now:
= 107 gm/lt = 0.107 gm/cc
Or 
Density of liquid CO 2 at 60 atm (at point B)
At point B there will be only liquid CO 2 . So we can find out the density of density of liquid CO 2 only at point B.

at point C the volume will be 
And pressure is same so obviously approx. half of CO 2 is liquified
Z can be greater than 1 at 27°C. For example at point 'A' Z is 1.07, So wrong.
