Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
According to the ideal gas law, which of the following is the correct equation?
Step 1: Understand that the ideal gas law relates pressure, volume, temperature, and the amount of gas.
Step 2: Identify the symbols used in the equation: P = pressure, V = volume, n = number of moles of gas, R = ideal gas constant, T = temperature in Kelvin.
Step 3: Combine these symbols into the equation: PV = nRT.
Step 4: Recognize that this equation shows how these variables are connected in an ideal gas.
Ideal Gas Law – The relationship between pressure (P), volume (V), number of moles (n), gas constant (R), and temperature (T) in an ideal gas.
