gasses take up the entire volume of their containers regardless of their molecular size. The intermolecular space is so huge that their molecular mass is negligible in comparison.

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.
