Chemistry Question on Liquid state
An ideal gas can?t be liquefied because
A
its critical temperature is always above 0∘C
B
its molecules are relatively smaller in size
C
it solidifies before becoming a liquid
D
forces operated between its molecules are negligible
Answer
forces operated between its molecules are negligible
Explanation
Solution
In an ideal gas, the intermolecular forces of attraction are negligible and hence it cannot be liquefied.
