31.Oxygen gas with higher critical temperature has high intermolecular forces of attraction than nitrogen gas with Lower critical temperature ,How? We know that as the temperature decreases , the kinetic energy of the molecules decreases or the molecules come closer to each other and forces of attraction increases ,then why Oxygen gas with higher critical temperature has high intermolecular forces of attraction than nitrogen gas?

Q. Assertion :Greater is critical temperature more easily a gas can be liquified. Reason: Critical temperature depends on the magnitude of intermolecular forces of attraction between the gas.

Q. Assertion :A gas with higher critical temperature is adsorbed more than a gas with lower critical temperature. Reason: Higher critical temperature implies that the gas is more easily liquefiable.

It's easier to liquify oxygen than hydrogen because:
a) oxygen has a higher critical temperature and lower inversion temperature than hydrogen
b) oxygen has a lower critical temperature and higher inversion temperature than hydrogen
c) oxygen has a higher critical temperature and higher inversion temperature than hydrogen
d) the critical temperature and inversion temperature of oxygen is very low

Q. Assertion :A gas with higher critical temperature gets adsorbed to more extent than a gas with lower critical temperature. Reason: The easily liquifiable gases get adsorbed to more extent.
