The statement that is NOT correct is
Options
- AVan der Waals constant 'a' measures extent of intermolecular attractive forces for real gases.
- BBoyle point depends on the nature of real gas,
- CCompressibility factor measures the deviation of real gas from ideal behaviour.
- DCritical temperature is the lowest temperature at which liquefaction of a gas first occurs.
Correct answer
D. Critical temperature is the lowest temperature at which liquefaction of a gas first occurs.
Step-by-step solution
Critical temperature is not the lowest temperature at which liquefaction of a gas first occurs. The critical temperature of a substance is the temperature at and above which vapor of the substance cannot be liquefied no matter how much pressure is applied. Therefore, statement (4) is incorrect.
