Given the value of their van der Waals constant ‘a’ arrange the following gases in the order of their expected liquification pressure at a temperature T. T is below the critical point of all the gases. Gas CH 4 Kr N 2 Cl 2 ‘a’ 2.283 2.439 1.408 6.579 (atm L 2 .mol –1 ) (A) CH 4 2 2 (B) N 2 4 2 (C) Cl 2 4 2 (D) Cl 2 2 4

Gas   CH4        Kr       N2     Cl2


‘a’    2.283    2.439   1.408  6.579     


(atm L2.mol–1)                      


 


(A)    CH4 < Kr < N2 < Cl2


(B)    N2 < CH4 < Kr < Cl2


(C)    Cl2 < Kr < CH4 < N2


(D)    Cl2 < N2 < Kr < CH4
