12.Kinetic Theory of Gases
normal

A real gas behaves like an ideal gas if its

A

pressure and temperature are both high

B

pressure and temperature are both low

C

pressure is high and temperature is low

D

pressure is low and temperature is high

Solution

By real gas equation, $\left(P+\frac{a}{V^{2}}\right)(V-b)=R T$

At High $T,$ the gas molecules have a higher average kinetic energy $(KEavg)$ which overcomes the $IMF$( (Intermoleculer force) At Low $P.$ , the gas molecules are spread further apart and can therefore avoid $IMF$. So, pressure should be low and temperature should be high for the ideal gas behaviour
