Critical compressibility factor for all substances___________________?

Correct answer: A. Are more or less constant (vary from 0.2 to 0.3)

  • A. Are more or less constant (vary from 0.2 to 0.3)
  • B. Vary as square of the absolute temperature
  • C. Vary as square of the absolute pressure
  • D. None of these

Explanation

The critical compressibility factor, Zc = PcVc/(RTc), is approximately similar for many substances and commonly lies around 0.2 to 0.3. It is not generally proportional to the square of temperature or pressure.
