Question

Under the same conditions of temperature and pressure, which of the following gases would behave most like an ideal gas?Ne, N₂, or CH₄? Explain.

Answer 1

Answer:

Ne

Explanation:

Atomic number of Ne is 10.

Electronic configuration of Ne:

$1s^2 2s^2 2p^6$

Octet of Ne is complete . Element having complete octet are stable and behave ideal gas.

$N_2$ and $CH_4$ are reactive and hence, does not behave as ideal gas.
