Solution
The correct option is D intermolecular attraction The van der Waal's equation corrects the volume and attractive forces between the gas molecules. The magnitude of 'a' is indicative of the strength of the intermolecular attraction. So the constant ' a ' provides the correction of intermolecular forces.
