The compressibility factor of gases is less than unity at `STP`. Therefore,

A

`V_(m) gt 22.4` litres

B

`V_(m) lt 22.4` Litres

C

`V_(m) = 22.4` litres

D

`V_(m) = 44.8` litres

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`Z = (PV)/(nRT)`
As `Z lt 1` (given)
`:. (PV)/(nRT) lt 1 " or "PV lt nRT`
(1 atm) `xx V lt 1`
`mol xx (0.0821 L atm K^(-1) mol^(-1)) xx (273 K)`
`V_(m) lt 0.0821 xx 283 L`
`V_(m) lt 22.4L`
