Question

The essential conditions for liquefaction of gases were discovered by Andrews in $1869$ as a result of his study of pressure-volume-temperature relationship for $C O_{2}$ . It was found that above a certain temperature, it was impossible to liquefy a gas whatever the pressure was applied. The temperature below which the gas can be liquefied by the application of pressure alone is called critical temperature $(T_{c})$ . The pressure required to liquefy a gas at this temperature is called the critical pressure $(P_{c)}$ . The volume occupied by one mole of the substance at the critical temperature and pressure is called critical volume. Critical constants are related with van der Waals' constant as follows:
$V_{c} = 3 b, P_{c} = \frac{a}{27 b^{2}}, T_{c} = \frac{8 a}{27 R b}$ .

The relationship between $P_{C}, V_{C}$ and $T_{C}$ is

P_{C} V_{C} = R T_{C}

Solution

The correct option is D $P_{C} V_{C} = \frac{3}{8} R T_{C}$
The option (D) is correct answer.
The relationship between $P_{C}$ , $V_{C}$ and $T_{C}$ is $P_{C} V_{C} = \frac{3}{8} R T_{C}$ or $\frac{P_{C} V_{C}}{R T_{C}} = \frac{3}{8}$ or $\frac{R T_{C}}{P_{C} V_{C}} = \frac{8}{3}$
