Linds method is employed for__________________?
Correct answer: D. Liquefaction of gases
- A. Separation of gases
- B. Expansion of gases
- C. Compression of gases
- D. Liquefaction of gases
Explanation
The Linde process liquefies gases by repeated compression, cooling and expansion, using the Joule-Thomson effect. It is therefore used for the liquefaction of gases, not simply for their compression or expansion. Students may choose a because separation can occur after liquefaction, but separation is not the main purpose of the Linde method.

About Real and Ideal Gases
An ideal gas is modelled as particles with negligible volume and no intermolecular attraction, obeying Boyle's, Charles's and Avogadro's laws through PV = nRT. Real gases deviate from this behaviour, especially at high pressure and low temperature, because particle volume and attractive forces matter; the van der Waals equation explains these corrections.
