Solution

Critical pressure:

The pressure required to convert the gas into a liquid form at critical temperature is called critical pressure.

The conversion of gas into liquid form is described below:

  1. It is a liquefication process of gas in which conversion takes place at the critical point.
  2. Thomas Andrews found the first liquid and gas state of carbon dioxide.
  3. The conversion of a gas into the liquid below the critical temperature by applied pressure is known as carbon dioxide vapour.
  4. Both cooling and compression are required for the liquefaction of gas.
  5. The critical pressure, temperature, and volume of carbon dioxide is 73.9bar, 304.10K, and 0.0956dm3mol-1.
