Can you explain the deviation of real gases using Van der Waals equation?

    ##Van## ##der## ##Waals## ##equation##:
    Van der Waals equation is used with amendment of ideal gas
    Equation:
    Amendment for volume:
    Volume of an ideal gas ##V##.When the *real * gas is kept in that ##V## volume volume occupied by real gas is ##x##. Then the volume of an ideal gas is ##(V-x)##
    Amendment for pressure:
    Pressure of an ideal gas is ##P##. Measured pressure of real gas is ##p##. Pressure reduced due to intermolecular attraction of real gas is ##y##.
    If we add measured pressure of real gas and pressure reduced due to intermolecular attraction of real gas is equal to the the pressure of ideal gas.
    ##P=p+y##
    Therefore Van der Waals equation is:
    ##a## and ##V## are constants for real gases. This equation can be used in any temperature and pressure.
    This equation is equal to ideal gas at high tempareture and low pressure. Because:
    ##p##+##a##(##n^2##/##v^2##) is almost equal to ##p## and ##V-nb## is almost equal to ##V##
    becuase
    So for real gases
    ##a## & ##V## are constant. Therefore they deviate from ideal gas behavior.
    Deviation is as follows:
