D

`CO_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Critical temperature (T) is the measure of intermolecular forces of attraction. The order of the critical temperature of the given gases is as
`{:(,CO_(2),gt,O_(2),gt,N_(2),gt,H_(2),gt,He),(T_(c)(K),304.2K,,(154.3K),,(126.2K),,(33.2K),,(5.2K)):}`
