    In van der Waals' equation of state of the gas law, the constant ?b? is a measure of

    A)  intermolecular repulsions

    B)  intermolecular attractions

    C)  volume occupied by the molecules

    D)  intermolecular collisions per unit volume

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     van der Waals' equation for one mole of a gas is \[\left[ p+\frac{a}{{{V}^{2}}} \right](V-b)=RT\] b is the volume correction. It arises due to finite size of molecules.
