Question

What is the ratio of critical temperature to Boyle’s temperature of the same gas?

• A. 8/27
• B. 27/8
• C. 8
• D. 27

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 8/27

The maximum temperature gas can remain liquid is known as critical temperature. The temperature till which a gas behaves like an ideal gas is Boyle’s temperature. Boyle’s temperature TB is given by a/Rb critical temperature Tc is given by 8a/27Rb. So the ratio is 8/27.
