Question

Write short notes on the behavior of real gases.

Answer 1

Real gases:

• A gas that does not behave like an ideal gas is referred to as “real gas.”.
• The interactions between gaseous molecules can explain their behavior.

Behavior of real gases:

• At low pressures and high temperatures, real gases follow gas laws.
• Due to the near proximity of the molecules of gases in high-pressure settings, molecular interactions begin to operate, and the molecules do not strike the container's walls.
• Positive deviation and negative deviation with full impact are two sorts of deviations from optimal behavior that a real gas can exhibit.

The deviation of real gas from ideal gas can be shown in terms of the P vs V graph which is as follows:
