Why does nitrogen deviate from the ideal gas law at high pressures?
(1) Intermolecular forces increase the volume compared with that for an ideal gas.
(2) Increasing the pressure decreases the volume of the molecules.
(3) Nitrogen molecules have finite volume.
(4) Collisions between molecules occur more frequently at high pressure.
