The correct Answer is:
To determine the conditions under which carbon dioxide (CO2) gas cannot be liquefied, we need to analyze the critical temperature (T_C) and critical pressure (P_C) of CO2, which are given as 30.98°C and 73 atm, respectively. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Critical Temperature and Pressure**: - The critical temperature (T_C) is the maximum temperature at which a gas can be liquefied, regardless of the pressure applied. For CO2, T_C = 30.98°C. - The critical pressure (P_C) is the minimum pressure required to liquefy a gas at its critical temperature. For CO2, P_C = 73 atm. 2. **Analyze the Given Conditions**: - We need to evaluate four different conditions (options) regarding temperature and pressure to determine if CO2 can be liquefied. 3. **Evaluate Each Option**: - **Option A**: T = 30.98°C, P = 73 atm - This is equal to both T_C and P_C. CO2 can be liquefied under these conditions. - **Option B**: T = 30.98°C, P = 83 atm - The temperature is at T_C, and the pressure is greater than P_C. CO2 can be liquefied under these conditions. - **Option C**: T = 32°C, P = 80 atm - The temperature is greater than T_C (32°C > 30.98°C). CO2 cannot be liquefied under these conditions, regardless of the pressure applied. - **Option D**: T = 30.98°C, P = 85 atm - The temperature is at T_C, and the pressure is greater than P_C. CO2 can be liquefied under these conditions. 4. **Conclusion**: - The only condition where CO2 cannot be liquefied is **Option C** (T = 32°C, P = 80 atm). ### Final Answer: Carbon dioxide gas cannot be liquefied under the conditions of **Option C** (T = 32°C, P = 80 atm).
