Question
when the actual gas volume is greater than the volume predicted by the ideal gas law, the explanation lies in the fact that the ideal gas law does not include a factor for molecular.
a volume
b mass
c attractions
d shape
The ideal gas law assumes gas molecules have negligible volume and no intermolecular attractions. When actual gas volume is greater than predicted, it's because the ideal - gas law doesn't account for the volume of the gas molecules themselves. Intermolecular attractions would cause the actual volume to be less than predicted. Mass and shape have no direct bearing on this volume - prediction discrepancy in the context of the ideal gas law.
