B) a negative deviation in the measured value of P from that for an ideal gas due to the finite volume of space occupied by molecules of a real gas.
C) a positive deviation in the measured value of P from that for an ideal gas due to the attractive forces between the molecules of a real gas.
D) a negative deviation in the measured value of P from that for an ideal gas due to the attractive forces between the molecules of a real gas.
