Solution

The correct option is A critical temperature of $B$ is less than that of $A$
Gas A can be liquefied at room temperature by applying pressure. Thus, the critical temperature of gas A is above room temperature.
But gas B cannot be liquefied at room temperature by applying pressure. Thus, the critical temperature of gas B is below room temperature.
This reflects that the critical temperature of B is less than that of A.
Note: The critical temperature of a gas is the temperature below which it can be liquefied by application of pressure.
$T_{c} = \frac{8 a}{27 R b}$
