Question

Do intermolecular forces cause negative or positive deviations from the PV/RT ratio of an ideal gas?

Answer 1

In an ideal gas, there isnt any intermolecular forces. I would say negative...... but im not sure :/

Answer 2

IMFs could cause deviations in either way, it depends on what the IMF is, and whether it affects the numerator or denominator of the PV/T ratio
