What is the difference between the REAL and IDEAL GAS? GIVE EXAMPLE
Real Gas | Ideal Gas |
---|---|
Has a definite volume | No definite volume |
Has a definite mass | Has no definite mass |
Follow the gas equation: P + a/V2) (V – b) = nRT | Follows ideal gas equation: pV=nRT |
Volume of the molecules of a real gas is non-zero | Volume of the molecules of an ideal gas is zero |
Possess both kinetic and potential energy | Posess only kinetic energy |
Example- Nitrogen, Oxygen, Carbon dioxide | Ideal gases do not exist |
