Re: Ideal Gas
Hi! I believe an ideal gas is a gas whose molecules are not attracted to one another (no intermolecular forces between molecules) and any collisions between the molecules are completely elastic, meaning no energy is lost. Gases under STP conditions tend to be referred to as ideal gases (STP means "standard temperature and pressure" and refers to the following conditions: 1 atm, 273.15 K). When a gas is being treated as an ideal gas, one can apply the ideal gas law: PV = nRT. Hope this helps!

Re: Ideal Gas
There are several characteristics of ideal gases:
(1) the collisions between gas molecules are elastic and conservation of energy occurs among the molecules;
(2) the total volume of the individual molecules is negligible comparing with the volume the gas occupies;
(3) no intermolecular forces exist among the molecules or between molecules and their surroundings;
(4) the molecules are in constant motion, and the distance between two molecules is much larger than the size of an individual molecule.

Re: Ideal Gas
It is the general gas equation which is:
PV = nRT
They don’t attract or repel each other, but their interaction would be an elastic collision.
PV = nRT
They don’t attract or repel each other, but their interaction would be an elastic collision.

Re: Ideal Gas
An ideal gas is a hypothetical gas composed of molecules that do not attract or repel each other.

Re: Ideal Gas
The ideal gas law is PV=nRT, but an ideal gas is basically a gas that has molecules have no intermolecular forces (they do not repel or attract each other).

Re: Ideal Gas
The ideal gas law is PV=nRT, and ideal gases do not have molecules that repel or attract each other. Hope this helps!

Re: Ideal Gas
Some examples of an ideal gas include nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, noble gases, some heavier gases like carbon dioxide and mixtures such as air. They follow the ideal gas rate law of PV=NRdeltaT

Re: Ideal Gas
Ideal gas is a gas that is made of a lot of particles that are not "attracted" with one another.

Re: Ideal Gas
PV=nRT is the ideal gas law, however, an ideal gas is one in which the molecules have no intermolecular interactions, meaning they do not resist or attract one other.

Re: Ideal Gas
An ideal gas is a gas that has certain characteristics that make it suitable for the Ideal Gas Law equation. For one, no IMFs occur between molecules of a noble gas, and furthermore, collision between molecules of said gas should be elastic. Furthermore, the gas particles should constantly be in motion, and pretty spaced out.
