Ho do we know the b factor is dominating here as opposed to a negative a factor causing repulsion. The a factor of real gasses is squared and always dominates... Did they honestly give enough information in the problem to answer it correctly?
I went with ideal gas because I didn't think we had enough info to decipher a reasoning for the real gas... making all of the real gas explanations assumptions.
