Question
Under which of the following two conditions applied together, a gas deviates most from the ideal behaviour?
(i) Low pressure
(ii) High pressure
(iii) Low temperature
(iv) High temperature

Solution
(ii) High pressure
(iii) Low temperature
Explanation:
The real gases obey the ideal gas equation, PV= nRT at low pressure and high temperature. So, a gas does not obey the ideal gas equation or behave ideally at high pressure and low temperature.
