In Vander Waal’s equation a and b represent

(P+aV2)(ν−b)=RT\left( P + \frac{a}{V^{2}} \right)(\nu - b) = RT

A

Both a and b represent correction in volume

B

Both a and b represent adhesive force between molecules

C

A represents adhesive force between molecules and b correction in volume

D

A represents correction in volume and b represents adhesive force between molecules

Answer

A represents adhesive force between molecules and b correction in volume

Explanation

Solution

In Vander Wall’s equation (P+aV2) 6mu(V−b)=RT\left( P + \frac{a}{V^{2}} \right)\mspace{6mu}(V - b) = RT

a represents intermolecular attractive force and b represents volume correction
