Under what conditions may a real gas exhibit ideal behavior?
Can you tell me about the conditions under which a real gas can exhibit ideal behavior?
Of course! A real gas can exhibit ideal behavior under conditions of low pressure and high temperature. At low pressures, the volume of gas molecules is relatively large compared to the volume of the container they are in, so intermolecular forces between them are negligible. At high temperatures, gas molecules have high kinetic energy and move around rapidly, also reducing the impact of intermolecular forces.
