1.	For a real gas 'X'the Boyle point is 240^@C. If the van der Waals constant 'b'is 0.08 dm^3 mol^(-1), calculate the value of constant 'a'for 'X'.
Answer» Solution :The BOYLE POINT, `T_(b)` is given as `T_(b) = (a)/(Rb)` van der WAALS. CONSTANT .a. for the gas .X. ` = T_(b) xx R xx b = 513 xx 0.0821 xx 0.08 = 3.37` atm `L^(2)MOL^(-2)`.
