The $P$ vs $V$ graph is plotted for $1$ $mole$ of a hypothetical gas. Based on the given isotherms at $200 \ K$ and $300 \ K$,determine the range of $\frac{a}{b}$ for this gas in $atm-L \ mole^{-1}$. [Given: $R = 0.08 \ atm-L \ mole^{-1} \ K^{-1}$]

  • A
    $54 < \frac{a}{b} < 81$
  • B
    $27 < \frac{a}{b} < 42$
  • C
    $40 < \frac{a}{b} < 65$
  • D
    $13.5 < \frac{a}{b} < 40.5$
