Gas Laws

 

P: pressure      T: temperature         V: volume        n: moles      MM: molar mass

 

 

STP:  standard temperature and pressure 

          standard temperature:  0 ēC  (= 273 K)  

          standard pressure:   1.000 atm

              (1 atm = 760 mmHg = 760 torr = 101325 Pascals = 101.3 kPa = 29.92 in Hg = 14.7 lb/in2)

 

 

Temperature in Kelvin  (TinK)

 

 

Kelvin/Celsius: 

 

 

Volumes:  1000 cm3 = 1 dm3 = 1 liter = 1000 ml

 

 

Boyle's law:    or    therefore   (temperature and amount are     held constant)

 

 

Charles' law:    therefore  (when TinK and pressure and amount are held constant)

 

 

Gay-Lussac's law:    therefore    (when TinK and volume and     amount are held constant)

 

 

Avogadro's Law:    therefore   (temperature and pressure are    held constant)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Combined gas laws:    therefore          (when TinK and amount is held constant)

 

 

Dalton's law:    when a gas is collected over water

 

 

Density:    therefore    (when TinK and )

 

 

Grahams Law: 

 

 

Ideal gas law:    (TinK, and R is 0.08206 )

 

 

Molar volume:  at STP, 1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4 L and has Avogadro's number of particles  (and the mass of one mole of the compound)
