Question

why H2 and He gases always show positive deviations e.g z is always greater than one?

Answer 1

Hope it's help you...❣️✌️

Hydrogen and Helium: These are two lightest gases known. Their molecules have very small masses. The attractive forces between such molecules will be extensively small. At all temperatures, if the pressure is high enough, there will be a positive deviation because of the size of the molecules.
