A gas at 350 K and 15 bar has molar volume 20 percent smaller than that for an ideal gas under the same conditions. The correct option about the gas and its compressibility factor ($Z$) is:Compressibility factor $Z=\frac{V_{real}}{V_{ideal}}$ Since $V_{real}<V_{ideal}$ (20% smaller), $Z<1$. If $Z<1$, attractive forces are dominant among the gaseous molecules and the gas can be liquefied easily.
