  1. The Vander Waals equation of state is {P + (a / c²)} (v – b)= RT, where p is pressure, v is specific volume, T is temperature and R is characteristic gas constant. The SI unit of a is
    1. J/kgK
    2. m3/kg
    3. m5/kg-s2
    4. Pa/kg
Correct Option: C

p +
a
both term should gave same unit since they are getting added

N= akg²
m3

⇒ a (unit) =
m6
.kg.
m
kg²s²m²

=
m5kg
=
m5
kg² s²kgs²
