Question

When is deviation from the ideal gas law greatest?

Answer 1

"Real" gases deviate most from an "ideal" gas in one of two conditions:
1. Low temperature, about the temperature where the gas condenses.
2. High pressure, where the volume is too low to satisfy the premise of kinetic molecular theory that assumes gas molecules' volumes are "negligible" to the container in which they are contained.

For instance, a gas at `5` atm and `50°K` will probably deviate from ideal behavior.
