The gas laws were discovered empirically—that is, scientists performed experiments, observed the behavior of gases, and came up with equations that fit that behavior.
A gas that obeyed the ideal gas equation exactly under any conditions would be an ideal gas, but no actual gas perfectly conforms to the equation at all temperatures and pressures.
The ideal gas equation assumes that particles are free to move anywhere within the volume (V) of a container, so this fraction of unavailable space around each particle requires an adjustment to that volume (V – b).

An ideal gas is one in which all collisions between molecules or atoms are perfectly elastic and in which there are no intermolecular attractive or repulsive forces.

The idela gas equation is actaully a combination of several different gas laws.
A real gas would behave somewhat differently, and--if the awful truth is known--even some ideal gases deviate a little bit (cardon dioxide, for example, bucks the law and occupies 22.3L just to be different), but if such differences exist, they are small and can be safely ignored by a general chemistry student.
Example: 1.12 moles of neon gas are placed in a 5.0L vessel, and the pressure is measured to be 749 torr.

 Ideal Gas: Equation Of State in Diatomic Gases: still valid?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
Recall the "properties of an ideal gas:" no intermolecular potential; means non-interacting particles; means no translational coupling with rotational or vibrational energies; there are no restrictions regarding angular moments, degrees of freedom within molecules, or couplings among intra-molecular degrees of freedom.
The internal degrees of freedom have no effect on the pressure equation for an ideal gas, which is natural since the pressure is due to momentum transferred to the wall by the rebounding particles and only center of mass momentum is involved in that transfer.
Since T is a (statistical) measure of the total kinetic energy of the gas molecules, this would mean that the ratio of translational energy to T changes with temperature.

In an industrial process, a gas confined to a volume of 1 L at a pressure of 20 atm is allowed to flow into a 12-L container by opening the valve that connects the two containers.
If a gas contracts by 1/273 of its volume for each degree of cooling, it should contract to zero volume at a temperature of –273°C. This, of course, is the absolute zero of temperature, and this extrapolation of Charles' law is the first evidence of the special significance of this temperature.
