For real gases the relation between p, V and T is given by van der Waals equation:
where 'a' and are van der Waals constants, 'nb' is approximately equal to the total volume of the molecules of a gas.
'a' is the measure of magnitude of intermolecular attraction.
I. Arrange the following gases in the increasing order of 'b'. Give reason. O2, CO2, H2, He
II. Arrange the following gases in the decreasing order of magnitude of 'a'. Give reason. CH4, O2, H2.

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
I.The increasing order of 'b' of the given gases is:
H2 < He < O2 < CO2
Volume of a gas is proportional to the size of the molecule.
II.The decreasing order of magnitude of 'a' of the given molecule is:
CH4 > O2 > H2
