Correct answer: C. Gas C will occupy more volume than gas A ; gas B will be more compressible than gas D

* Gas A and C have same value of ‘b’ but different value of a so gas having higher value of a have more force of attraction so molecules will be more closer hence occupy less volume.
* Gas B and D have same value of ‘a’ but different value of b so gas having lesser value of b will be more compressible.

Gas	$a / \left(kPad{m}^{6}mo{l}^{- 1}\right)$	$b / \left(d{m}^{3}mo{l}^{- 1}\right)$
A	$642.32$	$0.05196$
B	$155.21$	$0.04136$
C	$431.91$	$0.05196$
D	$155.21$	$0.4382$
