Question

The value of Boyle Temperature for an ideal gas :

• A. a/R
• B. a/br
• C. 2a/bR
• D. 2a/R

Answer 1

Answer:

B. a/br

• The Boyle temperature (TB​) is the specific temperature at which a real gas behaves most like an ideal gas over a wide range of pressures.

• At this temperature, the attractive and repulsive forces between the gas particles effectively balance each other out, and the gas's compressibility factor (Z) is approximately equal to 1.

• The Boyle temperature for a real gas is related to its van der Waals constants (a and b) by the equation:

  T_B=a/Rb​
