Question:

Referring to Figure 5.22, explain the following:
(a) Why do the curves dip below the horizontal line labeled ideal gas at low pressures and then why do they arise above the horizontal line at high pressures?
(b) Why do the curves all converge to 1 at very low pressures?
(c) Each curve intercepts the horizontal line labeled ideal gas. Does it mean that at that point the gas behaves ideally?
