The statement that is NOT correct is

  1. A Van der Waals constant 'a' measures extent of intermolecular attractive forces for real
    gases.
  2. B Boyle point depends on the nature of real gas,
  3. C Compressibility factor measures the deviation of real gas from ideal behaviour.
  4. D Critical temperature is the lowest temperature at which liquefaction of a gas first occurs.
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) Critical temperature is the lowest temperature at which liquefaction of a gas first occurs.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Critical temperature is not the lowest temperature at which liquefaction of a gas first occurs. The critical temperature of a
substance is the temperature at and above which vapor of the substance cannot be liquefied no matter how much
pressure is applied. Therefore, statement (4) is incorrect.
