Ideal gases are gases with negligible intermolecular forces and molecular volumes.

Real gases have intermolecular forces and have definite volumes at room temperature and pressure (RTP).

Which of the following properties minimizes the differences between an ideal gas and a real gas?

- Weak intermolecular forces -Low density


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

higher molecular volumes and exhibit intermolecular forces, such as van der Waals forces, that cause deviations from ideal gas behavior. These intermolecular forces affect the compressibility, volume, and pressure of a real gas, making it different from the assumptions of an ideal gas.


How can a real gas be made to approach being an ideal gas?

Real gases approach ideal behavior at high temperature and low pressure. In this Condition gases occupy a large volume and molecules are far apart so volume of gas molecules are negligible and intermolecular force of attraction(responsible for non ideal behavior) become low. So gases approach ideal behavior.


What are real and ideal gases and are all real gases ideal?

Ideal gases can be explained by the Kinetic Molecular Theory: 1) no attraction between gas particles 2) volume of individual gas particles are essentially zero 3) occupy all space available 4) random motion 5) the average kinetic energy is directly proportional to Kelvin Real gases has volume and attraction exists between gas particles. No gas behaves entirely ideal. Real gases act most ideal when temperature is is high and at low pressure.


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

What is an imaginary gas that conforms perfectly to the kinetic molecular theory callled?

That's called an "ideal gas". The behavior of real gases is quite similar to an ideal gas, except when the pressure is too high, or the temperature too low.That's called an "ideal gas".

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.


Is real gas a gas?

A real gas is a type of gas that is different than an ideal gas. They have completely different interactions between their molecules.

How do the particles in a real gas deviate from ideal gas behavior?

The particles in a real gas deviate from ideal gas behavior due to interactions between the particles. In an ideal gas, the particles are assumed to have no volume and no interactions with each other. In a real gas, the particles have volume and can interact through forces such as van der Waals forces. These interactions can cause the gas to deviate from ideal behavior, especially at high pressures and low temperatures.

Why can an ideal gas not be liquefied?

An ideal gas is not a real thing, just an idea. The definition of an ideal gas is one where there are no forces between the particles. If there are no forces, there is nothing to bring the particles together into a liquid. In a real gas of course there are forces of attraction which keep the particles together when they are moving sufficiently slowly.
