Given below are two statements: Statement-I : Boyle temperature of...
Given below are two statements:
Statement-I : Boyle temperature of gas depends upon its nature.
Statement-II : Above Boyle temperature real gases shows negative deviation from ideality.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Options
- ABoth statement-I and statement-II are incorrect
- BBoth statement-I and statement-II are correct
- CStatement-I is incorrect and statement-II is correct
- DStatement-I is correct and statement-II is incorrect
Correct answer
D. Statement-I is correct and statement-II is incorrect
Step-by-step solution
- Statement-I is correct because the Boyle temperature (the temperature at which a real gas behaves like an ideal gas over a range of pressures) depends on the nature of the gas, i.e., different gases have different Boyle temperatures.
- Statement-II is incorrect because above the Boyle temperature, real gases show positive deviation from ideal gas behavior, not negative deviation. Negative deviation occurs below the Boyle temperature.
