NEET levelSingle correct optionDifficulty 1 of 3rg133

At the Boyle temperature a real gas

  1. Ais always liquefied
  2. Bobeys the ideal gas law approximately over a wide range of low pressures
  3. Chas zero kinetic energy
  4. Dshows maximum deviation from ideal behaviour

Answer: B

At the second virial coefficient vanishes, so remains close to 1 over an appreciable pressure range and the gas appears nearly ideal. Deviations are minimal, not maximal.
