Ideal gasReal gas
$(1)$ It satisfies $PV = \mu RT$ for all temperatures and pressures.$(1)$ It does not satisfy $PV = \mu RT$ for all temperatures and pressures.
$(2)$ The volume of molecules of an ideal gas is considered zero.$(2)$ The volume of molecules of real gases is not zero.
$(3)$ In an ideal gas, no intermolecular forces act between molecules.$(3)$ Depending on the distance between molecules, attractive or repulsive forces act between them.
$(4)$ Interatomic force is zero, hence potential energy is zero.$(4)$ Interatomic force is not zero, hence potential energy is not zero.
$(5)$ Possesses only kinetic energy.$(5)$ Possesses both kinetic energy and potential energy.
$(6)$ At absolute zero, the volume, pressure, and internal energy of an ideal gas become zero.$(6)$ All real gases liquefy before reaching absolute zero, and the internal energy in the liquid state is not zero.
