Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the ideal gas law equation?
  • Step 1: Understand that the ideal gas law is a formula used in chemistry and physics.
  • Step 2: The formula is written as PV = nRT.
  • Step 3: Identify what each letter in the formula stands for:
  • - P stands for pressure (how much force the gas exerts).
  • - V stands for volume (the space the gas occupies).
  • - n stands for the number of moles (a way to count gas particles).
  • - R is the ideal gas constant (a specific number that helps in calculations).
  • - T stands for temperature (how hot or cold the gas is).
  • Step 4: Remember that this equation helps us understand how gases behave under different conditions.
