Which of the following is Virial equation of state ?
Correct answer: C. PV = A + B/V + C/V2 + D/V3 + ...
- A. (p + a/V2)(V - b) = nRT
- B. PV = nRT
- C. PV = A + B/V + C/V2 + D/V3 + ...
- D. None of these
Explanation
The virial equation expresses pressure-volume behaviour as a series in inverse molar volume, such as PV = A + B/V + C/V² + .... The other equations are the van der Waals equation and the ideal-gas equation.
