The correct Answer is:
To determine which statements are true for a real gas at very high pressure, we will analyze each statement one by one based on the properties of real gases and the compressibility factor (Z). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Compressibility Factor (Z)**: - The compressibility factor (Z) is defined as \( Z = \frac{PV}{nRT} \). - For ideal gases, \( Z = 1 \). For real gases, especially at high pressures, \( Z \) can be greater than 1. 2. **Analyzing Statement (a)**: "Compressibility factor is greater than 1." - At very high pressures, real gases tend to have a compressibility factor \( Z > 1 \). - **Conclusion**: This statement is **True**. 3. **Analyzing Statement (b)**: "Compressibility factor varies linearly with pressure." - The behavior of \( Z \) with pressure is not linear for real gases. It can decrease initially with increasing pressure and then increase after reaching a certain point. - **Conclusion**: This statement is **False**. 4. **Analyzing Statement (c)**: "Molar volume occupied by gas is more as compared to ideal gas at similar pressure and temperature." - The compressibility factor can also be expressed as \( Z = \frac{V_{real}}{V_{ideal}} \). At high pressures, \( Z > 1 \) implies \( V_{real} > V_{ideal} \). - **Conclusion**: This statement is **True**. 5. **Analyzing Statement (d)**: "Gas is less compressible as compared to ideal gas." - At high pressures, real gases behave more like ideal gases, which means they are less compressible than ideal gases. - **Conclusion**: This statement is **True**. 6. **Analyzing Statement (e)**: "Compressibility factor is given by \( Z = 1 + \frac{Pb}{RT} \)." - The derivation shows that at very high pressure, the compressibility factor can be approximated as \( Z = 1 + \frac{Pb}{RT} \). - **Conclusion**: This statement is **True**. ### Final Summary of Statements: - (a) True - (b) False - (c) True - (d) True - (e) True ### True Statements: The true statements at very high pressure for a real gas are (a), (c), (d), and (e).
