Q. The sketch shows the plot of Z v/s P for a hypothetical gas for one mole at three distinct temperature . Boyle's temperature is the temperature at which a gas shows ideal behavior over a pressure range in the low-pressure region .Boyle's temperature

(T_{b})

\frac{a}{R b}

.If a plot is obtained at temperatures well below Boyle's temperature then the curve will show negative deviation,in low-pressure region and positive deviation in the high-pressure region.Near critical temperature, the curve is more likely as

C O_{2}

and the temperature well above critical temperature curve is more like
