Which of the following gases has the maximum van der Waal's constant 'a'?

  1. A \(\mathrm{H}_2\)
  2. B He
  3. C \(\mathrm{CO}_2\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{NH}_3\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\mathrm{NH}_3\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The parameter ' \(a\) ' signifies the intermolecular interaction among gas molecules. Since, \(\mathrm{NH}_3\) is a polar molecule, the intermolecular interactions is governed by the dipolar interaction along with van der Waal's interactions.
