The correct answer is: i,ii and iii
A Maximum density of CO2 in gaseous phase will be at point 'A'
Now: d=PMRT=60×44R×300=107 gm/lt=0.107 gm/cc
Or d=mass of gasVolume of gas=44 gm440 cc=0.1
B Density of liquid CO2 at 60 atm (at point B)
At point B there will be only liquid CO2 . So we can find out the density of density of liquid CO2 only at point B.
d= M V = 44 0.044 =1 gm/cc
C at point C the volume will be 0.44+0.044 2 0.22L
And pressure is same so obviously approx. half of CO2 is liquified
D Z can be greater than 1 at 27οC. For example at point 'A' Z is 1.07, So wrong.
