The difference between an ideal gas and a real gas is that real gases will not strictly follow the laws established for ideal gases, because of real-world characteristics.
An ideal gas can follow the formula PV=nRT
(P - pressure, V - volume, n - amount of moles, R - Avogrado constant, T - absolute temperature)
A real gas does not always follow this formula.
- Weak intermolecular forces -Low density
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).
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.
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.
The Ideal Gas Law describes the behavior of ideal gases in terms of pressure, volume, temperature, and the number of gas particles. Kinetic Molecular Theory explains the behavior of gases in terms of the motion of gas particles and the interactions between them, helping to understand concepts such as temperature and pressure in relation to gas behavior.

In an ideal gas molecules interact only elastically.
A real gas is a type of gas that is different than an ideal gas. They have completely different interactions between their molecules.
For an ideal gas, there is assumed to be no force of attraction between molecules. This assumption allows for simplification of the gas behavior under certain conditions, such as low pressure and high temperature. In reality, real gases do experience weak forces of attraction between molecules, but these are considered negligible in the ideal gas model.
Because this simplified model simplifies many calculations, without having to worry about small (and usually insignificant) differences between individual real gases.
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).
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.
The pressure exerted by a real gas is less than that of an ideal gas because real gases have intermolecular forces that cause them to deviate from ideal behavior. These forces result in the gas particles being closer together and experiencing attractive forces, which reduces the force with which they collide with the walls of the container, thus lowering the pressure.

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".
