Q. Which of the given sets of temperature and pressure will cause a gas to exhibit the greatest deviation from ideal gas behavior?
A) $100℃\ and\ 4\ atm$
B) $100℃\ and\ 2\ atm$
C) $- 100℃\ and\ 4\ atm$
D) $0℃\ and\ 2\ atm$
Explanation
(c)
Greatest deviation from ideal behaviour is exhibited by real gases at low temperature and high pressure.
From the given choices it is clear that choice (c) has lowest temperature and highest pressure.
