Would it be possible to cool a real gas down to zero volume?

No. As a gas contracts you are only reducing the volume between the atoms/molecules. The atoms/molecules of a real gas have their own volume that does not change with temperature.


A real gas differs from an ideal gas because the molecules of real gas have?

The molecules of real gas have some volume and some attraction for each other.


What At low temperatures and pressure how does the volume of a real gas compare with the volume of an ideal gas under the same conditions?

It is less


Can the volume of the particles in a real gas can be ignored?

No, that's why you call it real gas. For an ideal gas the size of the particle, that means the volume of interaction is zero, for real gases not. An effect of real gases is the cool down (or heat up) of an gas which is expanded (compressed). Another effect is that you can get liquids.


How does the ideal gas law relate to real gases?

Ideal gas law states that there are no inter molecular attractions between gas molecules and that ideal gas does not occupy space therefore having no volume. However, a real gas does have intermolecular attractions and does have a volume.


Can the volume of gas be zero if yes than how?

An ideal gas would have zero volume at zero kelvin. This is an idealization, and it won't happen with a real gas. Also, real substances can't be cooled down to zero kelvin.


What are two characteristics of an ideal gas that are not true of a real gas?

they have no volume and their molecular force of attraction is negligible


In an ideal gas compared to a real gas at very high pressure occupies?

A 'real' gas would occupy a higher volume as compared to the same amount of gas would have when 'idealistically' calculated by the 'ideal' gas law. The 'eigen' volume (its own molecular dimension) is to be taken in account at high pressure.


How do you calculate the volume of natural gas in standard cubic meter at standard pressure?

The volume of gas in a cubic meter is one cubic meter. But perhaps that is not the real question?


What is the volume of the gas before and after cooled?

The volume of a gas - at constant pressure - is proportional to the absolute temperature, that is, to the temperature expressed in Kelvin. This relationship is only approximate for real gases, but it is close enough for most practical purposes.


What is a true gas?

Real gases are those we encounter in the real world- hydrogen oxygen, nitrogen, argon, water vapour. An ideal gas is one that obeys the ideal gas law, usually expressed as PV=nRT. No real world gas follows this law although it is a good predictor of their behaviour as pressure, P, volume, V, temperature, T and number of moles, n, change.


Does a gas have a deifinite volume?

The volume of a gas is dependent on the pressure and temperature of the gas.
