Q. Above the Boyle temperature, the compressibility factor of the real gases, $ Z $ is

AMUAMU 2013States of Matter

Solution:

The temperature at which a real gas obeys ideal gas law over an appreciable range of pressure is called Boyle temperature or Boyle point. Boyle point of a gas depends upon its nature. Above their Boyle point, real gases show positive deviation from ideality and $Z$ values are greater than one. $Z > 1$
