Question:

Pressure versus volume graphs for a real gas and an ideal gas are shown in the figure.
ncert-exemplar-problems-class-11-chemistry-chapter-5-states-of-matter-12

Answer the following questions on the basis of this graph.
(i) Interpret the behaviour of real gas with respect to ideal gas at low pressure.
(ii) Interpret the behaviour of real gas with respect to ideal gas at high pressure.
(iii) Mark the pressure and volume by drawing a line at the point where real gas behaves as an ideal gas.

Answer:

(i) At low pressure, the two* curves almost coincide. This shows that at low pressure, the real gases show very small deviation from ideal behaviour.
(ii) At high pressure, the curves are far apart. This shows that real gases show large deviations at high pressure.
(iii) At point A, where the two curves intersect each other, the real gas behaves exactly like ideal gas and the pressure and volume corresponding to this point are P1 and V1
