what is the gas low ? proved th gas low
Hello student,
The gas law is the law that relates the pressure (P), volume (V), and temperature (T) of a gas. There are three primary gas laws (Charles' Law , Boyle's Law and Avogadro's Law ) of gas that combines into a General Gas equation or Ideal Gas Law.
Formula : PV = nRT
- P is the pressure of the ideal gas.
- V is the volume of the ideal gas.
- n is the amount of ideal gas measured in terms of moles.
- R is the universal gas constant .
- T is the temperature.
Proof :
Let us consider the pressure exerted by the gas to be ‘ p, ’
The volume of the gas be – ‘ v ’
Temperature be – T
n – be the number of moles of gas
Universal gas constant – R
According to Boyle’s Law ,
At constant n & T, the volume bears an inverse relation with the pressure exerted by a gas.
i.e. v∝1p ………………………………(i)
According to Charles’ Law,
When p & n are constant, the volume of a gas bears a direct relation with the Temperature.
i.e. v∝T ………………………………(ii)
According to Avogadro’s Law,
When p & T are constant, then the volume of a gas bears a direct relation with the number of moles of gas.
i.e. v∝n ………………………………(iii)
Combining all the three equations, we have-
v∝nTp
or pv=nRT
where R is the Universal gas constant , which has a value of 8.314 J/mol-K
All the best and thank you.
