plss tell the compressibility factor for an ideal gas is

a)1.5

b)1

c)2

d) infinity

dear Pankaj

The compressibility factor is defined as:

For an ideal gas the compressibility factor is Z = 1 per definition

hence answer is b

All the best.

COMPRESSIBILITY FACTOR 'Z'=pV/RT

FOR AN IDEAL GAS pV=nRT

SO, FOR 1MOLE OF IDEAL GAS pV=RT

THEREFORE, Z=1

pV/nRT=compressibility factor(Z)

for an ideal gas, Z=1

Approved

for ideal gas compressiblity factor(Z) is 1...
