Question

Difference between ideal and non ideal gas.

Answer 1

1.Ideal gas has no definite volume while non ideal gas has definite volume.

2.Ideal gas has no mass whereas non ideal gas has mass.

3.Collision of ideal gas particles is elastic while non-elastic for non ideal gas.

4.No energy involved during collision of particles in ideal gas. Collision of particles in non ideal gas has attracting energy.

5.Pressure is high in ideal gas compared to non ideal gas.

6.Ideal gas follows the equation PV=nRT. non ideal gas follows the equation (P + a/V2) (V – b) = nRT.
