3. REAL GAS:
Real gas is one in which mutual interaction between
molecules can not be neglected.
i.e. Potential energy of interaction is non zero.
IDEAL GAS:
Ideal gas is one in which mutual interaction between
molecules are negligible.
i.e. Potential energy of interaction is zero.
4. PROPERTIES OF REAL GAS:
1. Real molecules do take up space & do interact with each other.
2. Real gas molecules are not point masses.so,
the actual volume free to move in is less because of particle size.
V’ = V – nb “b” is a constant that differs for each gas.
3. Molecules do attract each other therefore pressure on the container will
be less than ideal.

5. 4. The FUGACITY represent chemical potential for real gas.
5. Most real gas depart from ideal behaviour at deviation from
- Low temperature
- High Pressure
6. As in real gas Interaction between molecules is not negligible so due
to interaction between molecules potential energy arises.
6. 6. As in real gas Interaction between molecules is not negligible so due to
interaction between molecules potential energy arises.
Acc. to plot
1. At larger distance the atoms
virtually do not interact and 𝑢(𝑟) is
zero.
2. At smaller distance forces of mutual
attraction tend to bring the atoms
closer and 𝑢(𝑟) diminishes.
3. At a distance r0 𝑢(𝑟) is minimum.
4. At 𝑟 < r0 , repulsive force dominant
and 𝑢(𝑟) increases.

7. Statistical mechanics of Ideal & Real Gas
Ideal Gas
Since we know that an ideal gas is one in which mutual interactions b/w molecules
are negligible i.e. potential energy of interaction

Since we know that in case of Real gases mutual interactions can not be neglected
so,
The energy of a monatomic gas of N identical atoms, each of mass m is

now introducing

which has the property that fij is only appreciable when
the particles are close together .
in terms of this parameter the configurational integral
is

Where exponentials of the sum has been factored into
product of exponentials.
Expansion of product is as follows
𝑖<𝑗(1 +fij)=1+ 𝑖<𝑗 𝑓𝑖𝑗+ 𝑖<𝑗 𝑘<𝑙 𝑓𝑖𝑗 𝑓𝑘𝑙+…(3)
13. With this expansion it is possible to find terms of different order., in terms of number of particles that
are involved.
The 1st term is single particle term, the 2nd term corresponds to the two particle interaction, the 3rd
to the three particle interaction & so on.
Such expansion is called the CLUSTER EXPANSION(Series expansion to handle inter-particle
interactions)
Each term represent the interaction within clusters of a certain number of particles.
Contribution to third term may be represented as
i,j,k,l,distict i=k i=k & j=l
