Statement 1: Extrapolation of the volume–temperature plots of any ideal gas to zero volume gives the same temperature, -273.15°C, whatever the gas.

Statement 2: At absolute zero, the volume of a real gas actually shrinks to exactly zero.

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Statement I is correct: V = V₀ T/273 is linear in T with slope fixed by V₀, so all ideal-gas V–T lines meet at V = 0, T = -273.15°C. Statement II is incorrect: real gases liquefy and solidify long before 0 K, so the zero-volume result is only an ideal-gas extrapolation, never realized. I correct, II incorrect. Ans: (c).
