At very high pressure, the compressibility factor of 1 mole of a van der Waal's gas can be given as

Options:(select one or more)

Answer:
A, B
Solution:

At very high pressure, V approaches b and the attraction term is negligible: P(V − b) = RT. Then Z = PV/RT = V/(V − b) (a ✓), and expanding, V/(V − b) ≈ 1 + b/V ≈ 1 + bP/RT (b ✓). (c) is the low-pressure attraction-dominated form and (d) is algebraically wrong. Hence (a) and (b).
