Which one of the following statements about the properties of gases is not correct?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The statement in option D is incorrect. In reality, at high pressures, real gases deviate from ideal gas behavior due to attractive interactions between the molecules. Option A is true because at low temperatures, attractive forces become significant and cause deviations from ideal gas behavior. Option B is true because at high pressures, the volume occupied by the molecules themselves becomes significant, leading to deviations from ideal gas behavior. Option C is true because, by definition, PV/RT = 1 for one mole of an ideal gas. Option E is also true because at high pressures, the finite size of the molecules becomes significant and causes deviations from ideal gas behavior.
