The correction factor 'a' to the ideal gas equation corresponds to

A

Density of the gas molecules

B

Volume of the gas molecules

C

Electric field present between the gas molecules

D

Forces of attraction between the gas molecules

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`(P + (a)/(V^2)) (V-b) = RT`
"a is for pressure correction, which depends upon intermolecular force of attraction.
