1.What are the components of the ideal gas law and what are their units of measurement? Write out the answer to this question.
2.What does the line look like on the Pressure vs. Volume graph for gases?
Ans. #1. The components of ideal gas law and their units are as follow -
PV = nRT - equation 1 - Ideal gas equation:
Where, P = pressure in atm
V = volume in L
n = number of moles
R = universal gas constant= 0.0821 atm L mol-1K-1
T = absolute temperature (in K) = (0C + 273.15) K
#2. The line of Pressure vs Volume graph (Boyle’s law) is hyperbola.
