Real vs. Ideal Gases
Real Gases If enough pressure is applied, the gas will turn into a liquid. All particles have the same volume. It follows laws under high pressures and low temperatures. The collisions are not elastic. They have polar intermolecular attractive forces.
Ideal Gases They take up no space. There are no intermolecular attractive forces. Particles are moving in constant, random motion. The collisions are elastic. There is no attraction or repulsion with the container. It follows laws under all conditions of temperature and pressure.
