The van der Waals equation for real gases recognizes that ________.
A)gas particles have non-zero volumes and interact with each other
B)molar volumes of gases of different types are different
C)the non-zero volumes of gas particles effectively decrease the amount of "empty space" between them
D)the molecular attractions between particles of gas decreases the pressure exerted by the gas
E)all of the above statements are true

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The van der Waals equation takes into account non-zero volumes of gas particles, interactions between them, and molecular attractions that affect the pressure exerted by the gas. Therefore, all of the above statements are true.
