At low pressures, the van der waal's equation is written as
`[P + (a)/(V^(2))] V = RT`
The compressibility factor is then equal to

A

`(1 - (a)/(RTV))`

B

`(1- (RTV)/(a))`

C

`(1+ (a)/(RTV))`

D

`(1+ (RTV)/(a))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`(P + (a)/(V^(2))) V = RT`
`PV + (a)/(V) = RT`
`(PV)/(RT) + (a)/(VRT) = 1`
`Z = 1 - (a)/(VRT)`
