What are the key differences between using and ?
: Uses number of moles (n) and the ideal gas constant (R). : Uses number of molecules (N) and Boltzmann constant ().
What are the differences between real gases and ideal gases?
Ideal Gases: Follow the ideal gas law perfectly, negligible intermolecular forces, point particles. Real Gases: Deviate from ideal behavior at high pressure/low temperature, significant intermolecular forces, finite particle volume.
