The ideal gas model assumes that gas particles experience no intermolecular attractions.

At low temperature, gas particles move slowly.

At high pressures, gas particles are very close together.

The closeness of the gas particles and their low speed allow intermolecular forces to become important at high pressure and low temperature.

The intermolecular forces cause the gas to deviate from ideal behavior.
