The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem regarding the compressibility factor (Z) for one mole of a gas under standard temperature and pressure (STP) conditions, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Compressibility Factor (Z)**: The compressibility factor \( Z \) is defined as: \[ Z = \frac{PV}{nRT} \] where: - \( P \) = pressure - \( V \) = volume - \( n \) = number of moles - \( R \) = universal gas constant - \( T \) = temperature 2. **Identify the Condition Given**: The problem states that \( Z > 1 \) under STP conditions. This implies that the gas does not behave ideally. 3. **Interpret the Meaning of \( Z > 1 \)**: - For an ideal gas, \( Z = 1 \). - When \( Z > 1 \), it indicates that the gas occupies a volume greater than what is predicted by the ideal gas law. This suggests that the gas is less compressible than an ideal gas. 4. **Relate \( Z \) to Volume**: Since \( Z \) is directly proportional to the volume when pressure and temperature are constant, if \( Z > 1 \), it implies: \[ V > \frac{nRT}{P} \] Under STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure), \( n = 1 \) mole, \( R = 0.0821 \, \text{L atm K}^{-1} \text{mol}^{-1} \), \( T = 273.15 \, \text{K} \), and \( P = 1 \, \text{atm} \). 5. **Calculate the Ideal Volume at STP**: The ideal volume for one mole of an ideal gas at STP is: \[ V_{\text{ideal}} = \frac{nRT}{P} = \frac{(1 \, \text{mol})(0.0821 \, \text{L atm K}^{-1} \text{mol}^{-1})(273.15 \, \text{K})}{1 \, \text{atm}} \approx 22.4 \, \text{L} \] 6. **Conclusion**: Since \( Z > 1 \), it implies that the actual volume of the gas is greater than 22.4 L. Therefore, the volume of the gas under these conditions must be greater than the ideal volume. ### Final Answer: Thus, if the compressibility factor \( Z \) for one mole of a gas is more than one under STP conditions, it indicates that the volume of the gas is greater than 22.4 L. ---
