The compressibility factor (Z) of a gas is given by

Z = 1 + 0.20 P - 80P/T ('P' in atm, 'T' in Kelvin)

What is the Boyle temperature of this gas?

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Z = 1 + (b - a/RT)P, with b = 0.20 and a/R = 80.

At the Boyle temperature the slope of Z against P at P → 0 is zero: 0.20 - 80/T = 0, so T = 80/0.20 = 400 K.

Answer: (B).
