where P is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume of the gas, and k is a constant for a particular temperature and amount of gas. Boyle's law states that when the temperature of a given mass of confined gas is constant, the product of its pressure and volume is also constant. When comparing the same substance under two different sets of ...
Isotherms of an ideal gas for different temperatures. The curved lines are rectangular hyperbolae of the form y = a/x. They represent the relationship between pressure (on the vertical axis) and volume (on the horizontal axis) for an ideal gas at different temperatures: lines that are farther away from the origin (that is, lines that are nearer to the top right-hand corner of the diagram ...
Gas required for descent: 175: litres Gas required for buoyancy control + 50: litres Gas required for bottom sector + 2625: litres Gas required for ascent + 350: litres Gas required for decompression stops + 525: litres Gas required to inflate BC on surface + 20: litres Total gas usage planned for dive: 3745: litres ÷ Volume of set (2 x 12 ...
The ideal gas equation can be rearranged to give an expression for the molar volume of an ideal gas: = = Hence, for a given temperature and pressure, the molar volume is the same for all ideal gases and is based on the gas constant: R = 8.314 462 618 153 24 m 3 ⋅Pa⋅K −1 ⋅mol −1, or about 8.205 736 608 095 96 × 10 −5 m 3 ⋅atm⋅K ...
That is 8 times , the volume of each particle of radius / , but there are 2 particles which gives 4 times the volume per particle. The total excluded volume is then = ; that is, 4 times the volume of all the particles. Van der Waals and his contemporaries used an alternative, but equivalent, analysis based on the mean free ...
For a substance X with a specific volume of 0.657 cm 3 /g and a substance Y with a specific volume 0.374 cm 3 /g, the density of each substance can be found by taking the inverse of the specific volume; therefore, substance X has a density of 1.522 g/cm 3 and substance Y has a density of 2.673 g/cm 3. With this information, the specific ...
Conversely, decreasing temperature would also make some water condense, again making the final volume deviating from predicted by the ideal gas law. Therefore, gas volume may alternatively be expressed excluding the humidity content: V d (volume dry). This fraction more accurately follows the ideal gas law. On the contrary, V s (volume ...
It is empirically true that this volume is about 0.26V c (where V c is the volume at the critical point). This approximation is quite good for many small, non-polar compounds – the value ranges between about 0.24V c and 0.28V c. [12] In order for the equation to provide a good approximation of volume at high pressures, it had to be ...
