Assertion : Compressibility factor for hydrogen varies with...
Assertion : Compressibility factor for hydrogen varies with pressure with positive slope at all pressures.
Reason : Even at low pressures, repulsive forces dominate hydrogen gas.
Options
- AIf both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion
- BIf both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
- CIf assertion is true but reason is false
- DIf both assertion and reason are false.
Correct answer
A. If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion
Step-by-step solution
In case of , compressibility factor increases with the pressure. At which shows that it is difficult to compress the gas as compared to ideal gas. In this case repulsive forces dominate.
