⚗️ Ideal Gas Law

Explore the relationship between pressure, volume, temperature, and amount of gas

Difficulty: ● Medium

📐 Physics Formulas
PV = nRT
Ideal Gas Law
P = nRT / V
Pressure calculation
KE_avg = (3/2)kT
Average kinetic energy per particle
📚 Key Concepts
  • Higher temperature = faster particle motion
  • Smaller volume = more collisions = higher pressure
  • More moles = more particles = higher pressure
  • R = 8.314 J/(mol·K) is the gas constant
  • Temperature must be in Kelvin (K = °C + 273.15)
🔬 Try This
  • Double the temperature - what happens to pressure?
  • Halve the volume - how does pressure change?
  • Add more moles and observe particle density
  • Try extreme values to see the limits
  • Keep volume constant and vary temperature
