3.6 Deviation from Ideal Gas Law
A sample containing \(1.00 \text{ mol}\) of \(\text{N}_2\text{(g)}\) is held in a container at a constant temperature of \(273 \text{ K}\). A student measures the pressure and volume of the gas sample across four different trials and calculates the ratio \(\dfrac{PV}{nRT}\), as summarized in the table below.
Based on the data in the table, which of the following best explains why \(\dfrac{PV}{nRT} > 1.00\) in trial 4?
| Trial | Pressure (\(\text{atm}\)) | \(\dfrac{PV}{nRT}\) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | \(1.0\) | \(1.00\) |
| 2 | \(100\) | \(0.87\) |
| 3 | \(300\) | \(1.00\) |
| 4 | \(800\) | \(1.52\) |
Based on the data in the table, which of the following best explains why \(\dfrac{PV}{nRT} > 1.00\) in trial 4?
