Calculate the compressibility factor for CO2, if one mole of it occupies 0.4 litre at 300K and 40 atm. Comment on the result.
Dear user,
Compressibility factor is given by :
Value of Z is less than 1 and hence nRT>PV. In order to have value of Z=1, volume of CO2 must have been more
at same pressure and temperature or CO2 is more compressible than ideal gas.
