Introduction to the Ideal Gas Law
Learning Goal:
To understand the ideal gas law and be able to apply it to a wide variety of situations.
The absolute temperature T. volume V, and pressure p of a gas sample are related by the
ideal gas law, which states that
PV = nRT.
Here is the number of moles in the gas sample and R is a gas constant that applies to all
gases. This empirical law describes gases well only if they are sufficiently dilute and at a
sufficiently high temperature that they are not on the verge of condensing.
In applying the ideal gas law, p must be the absolute pressure, measured with respect to
vacuum and not with respect to atmospheric pressure, and I must be the absolute
temperature, measured in kelvins (that is, with respect to absolute zero, defined throughout
this tutorial as -273° C). If p is in pascals and V is in cubic meters, use
R = 8.3145 J/(mol-K). If p is in atmospheres and V is in liters, use
R=0.08206 L-atm/(mol-K) instead.

Using the combined gas law, calculate the following. Also, what other law could you have used to solve this problem? Use details to support your answer.Some teenagers think that their parents are “full of hot air.” Your mom inhales 4 liters of air with a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius. Since you think she is full of hot air, this temperature must increase while the air is in her lungs. If this air heats up to 37 degrees Celsius, what is the new volume of the gas? (Note that 37 degrees Celsius is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit, which is normal body temperature.) Remember to pay close attention to the units of temperature before beginning your calculations.

As you know, the parameters of an ideal gas are described by the equation PV = nRT where p is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume of the gas, 12 is the number of moles. R is the universal gas constant, and T is the absolute temperature of the gas. It follows that, for a portion of an ideal gas, constant. One can see that, if the amount of gas remains constant, it is impossible to change just one parameter of the gas: At least one more parameter would also change. For instance, if the pressure of the gas is changed, we can be sure that either the volume or the temperature of the gas (or, maybe, both!) would also change. To explore these changes, it is often convenient to draw a graph showing one parameter as a function of the other.
