(N/A)
| Ideal Gas | Real Gas |
| $(i)$ Follows gas laws under all conditions. | $(i)$ Does not follow gas laws under all conditions. |
| $(ii)$ Follows the ideal gas equation,$pV = nRT$. | $(ii)$ Follows the van der Waals equation,$(p + \frac{an^2}{V^2})(V - nb) = nRT$. |
| $(iii)$ Compressibility factor is $Z = 1$. | $(iii)$ Compressibility factor is not $1$ $(Z \neq 1)$. |
| $(iv)$ Intermolecular forces are assumed to be zero. | $(iv)$ Intermolecular forces are significant and not zero. |
