At Boyle's temperature, the value of compressibility factor Z = (PVm / RT = Vreal/Videal) has a value of 1, over a wide range of pressure. This is due to the fact that in the van der Waal’s equation

A

The constant 'a' is negligible and not 'b'

B

The constant 'b' is negligible and not 'a'

C

Both the constant 'a' and 'b' are negligible
