Which among the following gases is difficult to liquify?

  1. A \(\mathrm{SO}_2\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{Cl}_2\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{NH}_3\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{O}_2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\mathrm{O}_2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Critical temperature \(\left(\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{c}}\right)\) of \(\mathrm{O}_2\) is much below \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) and its critical pressure \(\left(\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{c}}\right)\) value is also high. Consequently, it is difficult to liquify \(\mathrm{O}_2\).
