properties of a gas will cause them to deviate from ideal gas behavior

Answer 1

High pressure and low temperature will cause a gas to deviate from idea gas behavior.

Answer 2

Hello, Charles,

The ideal gas law makes the assumption that gas molecules fo not interact chemically in a manner that would affect the nature of collisions. For lckof a better analogy, the assumption is that they act like billiard balls. When they hit, they bounce off with no overall loss of energy. If they were coated with sticky adhesive, there would be a loss of energy. The idealgas laws do not account for interactions. There are "fudge factors" that make allowances for non-ideal gases.
