At 300 K and 20 atm, the molar volume of SO₂ gas is about 5% greater than the molar volume of an ideal gas. The reason the actual volume is greater than the ideal volume is that

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

Actual molar volume > ideal value means Z > 1, i.e. positive deviation, which occurs when the finite volume of the molecules themselves is a significant fraction of the container volume (repulsive/size effects dominate). Attractions would give Z < 1. Ans: (d)
