The value of a in van der Waal equation is _____________ /dependent on ___________(a) pressure(b) temperature(c) pressure and temperature(d) independent of pressure and temperatureI had been asked this question in an interview for job.I would like to ask this question from States of Matter topic in section States of Matter of Chemistry – Class 11

Answer» CORRECT answer is (d) independent of pressure and temperature

For explanation I would say: Value of an in VAN der Waal equation represents a measure of the magnitude of INTERMOLECULAR attractive forces within the gas and it is also independent of temperature and pressure. The van der Waal’s equation is GIVEN by (P – an^2/V^2)(V – nb) = nRT.
