Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Real gases have volume and are attracted to each other, making them depart from ideal gas behavior. However, they still exert pressure by colliding with the walls of their container. The kinetic energy of gas particles is directly proportional to temperature in Kelvin, not Celsius.
