Under what conditions gases generally deviate from ideal behaviour?

Question

Under what conditions gases generally deviate from ideal behaviour? (A) At high temperature and low pressure (B) At low temperature and high pressure (C) At high temperature and high pressure (D) At low temperature and low pressure

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

At low temperature and high pressure, the volume of the particles is not negligible as compared to the volume of the gas. Also, the intermolecular forces start acting upon the molecules. Hence, they deviate from ideal behaviour.
