← ScienceWhich phenomenon causes non-ideal behaviour as real gas approaches liquid phase?
A)Intermolecular forces become significant✓
B)Kinetic energy exceeds potential energy
C)Molecular volume becomes negligible
D)Gas molecules become perfectly elastic
💡 Explanation
As a gas approaches its liquid phase, intermolecular forces become significant because the molecules are closer, leading to deviations from ideal gas behavior. Therefore, intermolecular forces impact arises, rather than energy ratio shift, volume change or perfect elasticity idealizations which require ideal gas conditions.
