Difference Between Ideal Gas And Real Gas

6 Difference Between Ideal Gas And Real Gas

The main difference between an ideal gas and a real gas is that an ideal gas follows the ideal gas law, while a real gas deviates from the ideal gas law at high pressures and low temperatures.

S.NO.	Ideal Gas	Real Gas
1.	Ideal gases have no intermolecular forces.	Real gases have intermolecular forces that affect their behavior.
2.	Ideal gases have no volume.	Real gases have a volume due to the presence of the atoms or molecules.
3.	Ideal gases have infinite compressibility.	Real gases have limited compressibility due to the presence of intermolecular forces.
4.	Ideal gases have a constant temperature.	Real gases have a temperature that can vary depending on the surrounding conditions.
5.	Ideal gases have no viscosity.	Real gases have viscosity due to the presence of intermolecular forces.
