Real gas

A real gas is a type of gas that behaves according to the principles of the ideal gas laws only under certain conditions, like high temperatures and low pressures. Unlike ideal gases, which are a simplified model assuming no interactions between particles, real gases experience forces between their molecules and have a finite volume. This means that their behavior can deviate from ideality, especially at high pressures or low temperatures, where these interactions become significant. Understanding real gases is important in fields like chemistry and engineering, as it affects calculations and predictions in various applications.
