What Is Compressibility Factor Class 11?

Hint: Compressibility factor is a quantity which relates a real gas to an ideal gas to determine its deviation from ideal behaviour. ... It is the measure of how much a given gas shows deviation from ideal behaviour at similar temperature and pressure. It is denoted by 'Z'.

What do you mean by compressibility factor?

The compressibility factor Z is defined as the ratio of the actual volume to the volume predicted by the ideal gas law at a given temperature and pressure. Z = (Actual volume) / (volume predicted by the ideal gas law)

What is compressibility factor and what is the formula of it Class 11?

Compressibility Factor is also often defined as “the ratio of molar volume of gas to that of an ideal gas.” It is expressed as Z = pV / RT.
