Question

In vanderwaals equation of state for non ideal gases ,the term account for intermolecular forces?

Answer 1

In van der Waals’ equation of state : p + a/V^2 (V - b) = RT (for 1 mole) The first factor (p + a/V2) correct for intermolecular force while the second term (V - b) correct for m.

Answer 2

Answer:

In van der Waals equation of state for a non-ideal gas , the term that accounts for intermolecular forces is. The above equation is called van der Waals equation, [p+a/V2] represents the pressure correction, where a is constant

Explanation:

The van der Waals equation is an equation of state that corrects for two properties of real gases: the excluded volume of gas particles and attractive forces between gas molecules. The van der Waals equation is frequently presented as:

$(P + \frac{an^2}{V^2})(V-nb) = nRT$
