At a temperature of 320 K and a pressure of 16 atm, the molar volume of ammonia (NH3) is about 10% less than that of an ideal gas under those conditions. The best explanation for this observation is?

How do real gases differ from ideal gases?
The graph at the right shows PV/RT as a function of pressure for one mole of an ideal gas (horizontal dashed line) and for several real gases. One notices that for most of the real gases PV/RT is smaller than predicted by the ideal gas law for lower pressures. The reason for this deviation from ideal behavior is:
