A fluid held above its critical temperature
Answer: C
Correct answer: cannot be liquefied by compression alone
Above the critical temperature no amount of pressure will produce a distinct liquid phase; the fluid simply becomes denser continuously, without any phase boundary appearing. Cooling below the critical temperature is a necessary condition for liquefaction. It also does not behave as an ideal gas - a supercritical fluid can be as dense as a liquid.
