Assertion: Compressibility factor for hy...

Assertion: Compressibility factor for hydrogen varies with pressure with positive slope at all pressures.
Reason: Even at low pressures, repulsive forces dominate hydrogen gas.

A

Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion .

C

Assertion is true but Reason is wrong .

D

Both Assertion and Reason are wrong .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

In case of `H_(2)` , compressibility factor increases with the pressure , At 273 K ` Z gt 1` which shows that it is difficult to compress the gas as compared to ideal gas . In this case repulsive forces dominate .
