X-axis: Temperature (T), Y-axis: Volume (V), Curve: Direct relationship at constant pressure.

What are the key differences between using PV=nRTPV = nRTPV=nRT and PV=NkBTPV = Nk_BTPV=NkB​T?

PV=nRTPV = nRTPV=nRT: Uses number of moles (n) and the ideal gas constant (R). PV=NkBTPV = Nk_BTPV=NkB​T: Uses number of molecules (N) and Boltzmann constant (kBk_BkB​).

What are the differences between real gases and ideal gases?

Ideal Gases: Follow the ideal gas law perfectly, negligible intermolecular forces, point particles. Real Gases: Deviate from ideal behavior at high pressure/low temperature, significant intermolecular forces, finite particle volume.

What are the steps to convert Celsius to Kelvin?

Add 273.15 to the Celsius temperature: K=°C+273.15K = °C + 273.15K=°C+273.15

Outline the steps to solve for pressure using the Ideal Gas Law.

  1. Identify known variables (n, R, T, V). 2. Ensure units are consistent. 3. Rearrange the formula to solve for P: P=nRTVP = \frac{nRT}{V}P=VnRT​. 4. Plug in the values and calculate.

What are the steps to use the combined gas law?

  1. Identify initial and final conditions (P1, V1, T1, P2, V2, T2). 2. Ensure units are consistent. 3. Apply the formula: P1V1T1=P2V2T2\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}T1​P1​V1​​=T2​P2​V2​​. 4. Solve for the unknown variable.

What are the steps to calculate the number of moles (n) using the ideal gas law?

  1. Identify known variables (P, V, R, T). 2. Ensure units are consistent. 3. Rearrange the formula to solve for n: n=PVRTn = \frac{PV}{RT}n=RTPV​. 4. Plug in the values and calculate.

What are the steps to calculate the final volume (V2) of a gas using the combined gas law?

  1. Identify initial and final conditions (P1, V1, T1, P2, T2). 2. Ensure units are consistent. 3. Apply the formula: P1V1T1=P2V2T2\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}T1​P1​V1​​=T2​P2​V2​​. 4. Rearrange to solve for V2: V2=P1V1T2P2T1V_2 = \frac{P_1V_1T_2}{P_2T_1}V2​=P2​T1​P1​V1​T2​​. 5. Plug in the values and calculate.
