Gases having same reduced temperatures and reduced pressures_________________?

Correct answer: C. Both A. and B.

  • A. Deviate from ideal gas behaviour to the same degree
  • B. Have nearly the same compressibility factor
  • C. Both A. and B.
  • D. Neither A. nor B.

Explanation

The principle of corresponding states says that gases with equal reduced temperature and pressure have approximately the same compressibility factor and therefore similar departures from ideality. Thus both statements apply approximately.
