Mean Free Path & Real Gases

A real gas behaves as an ideal gas at

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. Ideal behaviour needs negligible molecular volume and negligible intermolecular forces.
  2. Low pressure: molecules far apart, their own volume negligible. High temperature: KE much larger than attraction energy.
  3. So the answer is (b) low pressure and high temperature.
