Gas Laws

Subject: Chemistry

Book: General Chemistry

Gas laws describe relationships among pressure (P), volume (V), temperature (T), and moles (n) of gases. For instance, Boyle’s law (P ∝ 1/V at constant T), Charles’s law (V ∝ T at constant P), and Gay-Lussac’s law (P ∝ T at constant V). These empirical laws lead into the ideal gas law: PV = nRT. Familiarity with gas laws is critical in fields ranging from meteorology to engineering.
