(N/A) The van der Waals equation for $n$ moles of a real gas is given by: $\left(p + \frac{an^2}{V^2}\right)(V - nb) = nRT$,where $p$ is the pressure,$V$ is the volume,$T$ is the temperature,$R$ is the universal gas constant,and $a$ and $b$ are the van der Waals constants.

Pressure exerted by $1 \, mole$ of methane in a $0.25 \, L$ container at $300 \, K$ using van der Waals equation is ............... $atm$ (given $a = 2.253 \, atm \, L^2 \, mol^{-2}, b = 0.0428 \, L \, mol^{-1}$):

Assertion : Compressibility factor for hydrogen varies with pressure with positive slope at all pressures.
Reason : Even at low pressure,repulsive forces dominate hydrogen gas.

The van der Waals constants for $HCl$ gas are $a = 3.6 \ atm \ L^2 \ mol^{-2}$ and $b = 40 \ mL \ mol^{-1}$. The critical temperature of the gas is : ............. $K$ [ $R = 0.08 \ atm \ L \ K^{-1} \ mol^{-1}$ ]

Positive deviation from ideal behaviour is due to the fact that
