Real Gas: Overview
This topic covers concepts such as Real Gas, Deviations from Ideal Gas Behaviour, and Invalid Assumptions of Kinetic Theory for Real Gases.
Important Questions on Real Gas
A gas is said to behave like an ideal gas when relation constant. When do you expect real gas to behave like an ideal gas?

Consider the following statements :
I. Density and molar mass of gaseous substance are related as
II. Partial pressure in terms of molefraction is related as
III. At constant temperature, plot for real gases is a straight line
IV. Real gases do not follow ideal gas equation perfectly under all conditions
Choose the correct statements and select the correct option

Gases deviate from ideal behaviour at high pressures because the gas molecules
