Homogeneous mixing and compressibility b...

Homogeneous mixing and compressibility both result from the fact that the molecules are far apart in gases. Mixing occurs because individual gaseous molecules have little interaction with their neighbours and, assuming that no reaction takes place, the chemical identities of those neighbours are irrelevant. Compressibility is possible in gases because only about 0.1% of the volume of a typical gas is taken up by the molecules themselves under normal circumstances, the remaining 99.9% is empty space.
Compressibility factor of a gas is given by :

A

`(PV)/R`

B

`(PV)/R^(2)`

C

`R/(PV)`

D

`(PV)/(nRT)`
