If two gases have the same value of `b` but different values of `a` (`a` and `b` are van der Waals constants), which of the following statements is wrong?

A

The gas having `a` smaller value of `b` has larger compressibility.

B

The gas having a smaller value of `b` will occupy lesser volume.

C

The gas having a smaller value of `b` has lesser compressibility.

D

Both (`a`) and (`b`).
