Assertion : Compressibility factor of ideal gases is one. Reason : For ideal gases pV=nRT equation is obeyed.

The compressibility factor (Z) of real gas is usually less than 1 at low temperature and low pressure because

At a high pressure, the compressibility factor (Z) of a real gas is usually greater than one. This can be explained from van der Waals equation by neglecting the value of:

The compressibility factor of gases is less than unity at STP . Therefore,

For ideal gases, Z = 1 at all temperature and pressure.
