Question

The graph below shows the change in pressure as the temperature
increases for a 1-mol sample of a gas confined to a
1-L container. The four plots correspond to an ideal gas and
three real gases: CO₂, N₂, and Cl₂. (a) At room temperature,
all three real gases have a pressure less than the ideal gas.
Which van der Waals constant, a or b, accounts for the influence
intermolecular forces have in lowering the pressure of a
real gas? (b) Use the van der Waals constants in Table 10.3 to
match the labels in the plot (A, B, and C) with the respective
gases (CO₂, N₂, and Cl₂).
