When a sample of gas is compressed at a fixed low temperature, the pressure is found to be less than the ideal gas value. This is mainly due to
(I) attractive forces between molecules (II) the finite volume of the molecules
Options:
Answer:
C
Solution:
Attractions pull the molecules away from the wall, so the pressure is lower than the ideal value.
The finite molecular volume would make the pressure higher than the ideal value, so it cannot explain a lower pressure.
Answer: (C).
