### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Definition of Critical Temperature**: - Critical temperature is defined as the temperature above which a gas cannot be liquefied, regardless of the pressure applied. 2. **Behavior of Gases**: - When a gas is cooled below its critical temperature, it can be converted into a liquid by increasing the pressure. This is because the kinetic energy of the gas molecules decreases, allowing intermolecular forces to pull them closer together, resulting in a liquid state. ...
