The equation of state for a gas is: P = RT/(V − b) − a/(T·V2), where V is the molar volume of the gas and a and b are constants different than van der Waal's constant.

The molar volume of the system at the critical temperature and pressure, is

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

From the two critical conditions (first and second derivatives of P with respect to V both zero), dividing the second derivative condition by the first gives Vc = 3/2(Vc - b), hence Vc = 3b. This is the molar volume at the critical temperature and pressure. Hence Ans (a).
