The term that accounts for intermolecular force in Vander Waal's equation for non-ideal gas is (P+a/V^2).
The term (a/V^2) represents pressure correction due to the presence of intermolecular forces of attraction between gas molecules. Here the Van Der Waals constant ′a′ is a proportionality constant called the coefficient of attraction. Its value depends upon the nature of the gas.
(V–b) is represents the correct volume.
