Real Gas Equation

For real gase...

Question

For real gases van der Waals' equation is written as $(p + \frac{a n^{2}}{V^{2}}) (V - n b) = n R T$ where a and b are van der Waals' constants. Two sets of gases are
(I) $O_{2}, C O_{2}, H_{2} and H e$
(II) $C H_{4}, O_{2} and H_{2}$
The gases given in set-I in increasing order of b and gases given in set - II in decreasing order of a, are arranged below. Select the correct order from the following:

(I) H e < H_{2} < C O_{2} < O_{2} (I I) C H_{4} > H_{2} O_{2}

Solution

The correct option is D $(I) H_{2} < H e < O_{2} < C O_{2} (I I) O_{2} > C H_{4} > H_{2}$
van der Waals' gas constant 'a' represent intermolecular forces of attraction of gaseous molecules and van der Waals' gas constant 'b' represent effective size of molecules. Therefore order should be
$(I) H_{2} < H e < O_{2} < C O_{2} (I I) O_{2} > C H_{4} > H_{2}$
