The given graph represents the variation of Z (compressibility factor = ) versus P, for three real gases A, B and C. Identify the only incorrect statement.
  1. For the gas A, a = 0 and its dependence on P is linear at all pressures.
  2. For the gas B, b = 0 and its dependence on P is linear at all pressures.
  3. For the gas C, which is typical real gas for which neither a nor b = 0 . By knowing the minima and the point of intersection, with Z = 1, a and b can be calculated.
  4. At high pressure, the slope is positive for all real gases.

Answer

(B) For the gas B , b = 0 and its dependence on P is linear at all pressures.
