The van der Waals' constant 'a' for the ...

The van der Waals' constant 'a' for the gases `O_(2), N_(2), NH_(3) "and " CH_(4)` are 1.36, 1.39, 4.17 and 2.253 respectively, the gas which can be most easily liquefied is :

A

`O_(2)`

B

`N_(2)`

C

`NH_(3)`

D

`CH_(4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The van der Waals' constant 'a' is directly proportional to the intermolecular force , hence, the gas with greater value of 'a' can be most easily liquefied
