\mathrm{\left(P+\frac{n^2 a}{v^2}\right)(v-n b)=n R T }
At low pressure, ' b ' can be ignored as the volume of the gas is very high. At high temperature ' a ' can be ignored as the pressor of the gas is high.

\begin{gathered} \mathrm{\therefore P(V-b)=R T ; P V-P b=R T} \\ \mathrm{P V=R T+P b \Rightarrow \frac{P V}{R T}=Z=1+\frac{P b}{R T}} \end{gathered}
