The SI unit of the van der Waals constant $b$ is

Answer: B

nb

is subtracted from the volume

V

, so

b

has units of volume per mole, i.e.

m^{3} mo l^{- 1}

(or

L mo l^{- 1}

). The constant

a

has units

Pa m^{6} mo l^{- 2}

In the van der Waals equation (P + (an^2)/(V^2))(V - nb) = nRT, the term (an^2)/(V^2) corrects for NEET level
