Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
In real gases, there exists force of attraction between the molecules at low temperature and high pressure. This is because at low temperature there occurs a decrease in kinetic energy of gas molecules and high pressure causes the molecules to come closer to each other.
As a result, forces of attraction increases as molecules come closer to each other and therefore, gases deviate from an ideal gas behavior.
And, at low pressure and high temperature there exists no force of attraction or repulsion between the molecules of a gas because they have high kinetic energy. Hence, gases behave ideally at these conditions.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement as the temperature approaches 0 K, the volume of the ideal gas will be larger than the volume of because ideal gases lack inter-molecular forces, is true.
