Question

In Vander waal's equation for real gases, the constant 'a' is a measure of
a. volume occupied by the molecule
b. intermolecular attraction
c. intermolecular repulsion
d. none of these​

Answer 1

Answer:

Option-A

Explanation:

In van der Waals equation of state of the gas law, the constant b is a measure of the volume occupied by the molecules.

It gives the effective size of the gas molecules. The greater value of b indicates a larger size of the molecules and smaller compressible volume.
