  2. Ideal Gas Law - Chemistry - Socratic

    socratic.org/chemistry/the-behavior-of-gases/ideal-gas-law

    Imagine that you condense an ideal gas. Since the particles of an ideal gas have no volume, a gas should be able to be condensed to a volume of zero. Reality check: Real gas particles occupy space. A gas will be condensed to form a liquid which has volume. The gas law no longer applies because the substance is no longer a gas!

  3. How do you find density in the ideal gas law? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/how-do-you-find-density-in-the-ideal-gas-law

    The original ideal gas law uses the formula PV = nRT, the density version of the ideal gas law is PM = dRT, where P is pressure measured in atmospheres (atm), T is temperature measured in kelvin (K), R is the ideal gas law constant 0.0821 atm(L) mol(K) just as in the original formula, but M is now the molar mass (g mol) and d is the density (g L).

  4. What are the limitations of the ideal gas law? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/what-are-the-limitations-of-the-ideal-gas-law

    The ideal gas law makes some assumptions about gases that are not necessarily true. This means that the ideal gas law has some limitations. For example, the ideal gas law makes an assumption that gas particles have no volume and are not attracted to each other. Here's why the idea gas law has limitations. Imagine that you condense an ideal gas. Since the particles of an ideal gas have no ...

  5. What are the units used for the ideal gas law? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/what-are-the-units-used-for-the-ideal-gas-law

    The equation for the Ideal Gas Law is: PV = nRT On the whole, this is an easy equation to remember and use. The problems lie almost entirely in the units. SI units Pressure, P Pressure is measured in pascals ("Pa") — sometimes expressed as newtons per square metre ("N·m"^"-2"). These mean exactly the same thing. Be careful if you are given pressures in kilopascals ("kPa"). For example, "150 ...

  6. What is the ideal gas law used for? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/what-is-the-ideal-gas-law-used-for

    see below You can use one of two formulation of the ideal gas law according with what you want know. P xx V = n xx R xx T where P = absolute pressure V= volum n = number of mol = mass (in gramms)/ molecular Mass R is the universal costant of ideal gas = 0.082 L x Atm /(mol K) or 8,31 J /(mol K) T = absolute temperature in K This is usefull if you want find a parameter andyou know all the ...

  7. How do gas laws affect hot air balloons? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/how-do-gas-laws-affect-hot-air-balloons

    We can rearrange the Ideal Gas Law, PV = nRT, to calculate the density ρ of the hot air. ρ = (PM)/ (RT), where M is the molar mass of the gas (The molar mass of air is about 29 g/mol). This says that the density of the air decreases as itse temperature increases. Thus, the heated air inside the balloon is less dense than the cool air outside ...

  8. What is the Ideal gas law? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/what-is-the-ideal-gas-law

    The ideal gas law states that PV=nRT. The ideal gas law gives the relationship between a substance's mass, volume, its current temperature, the amount of moles of the substance, and the pressure it is currently in, by a simple equation. In my words, I would say that it says that: The product of the pressure and volume of a substance is directly ...

  9. How can the ideal gas law be made more precise? | Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/how-can-the-ideal-gas-law-be-made-more-precise

    ASSUMPTION OF THE IDEAL GAS LAW PV = nRT => \\mathbf(PbarV = RT) The ideal gas law really assumes that all gases at STP have a molar volume barV = V/n of about "22.710 L/mol", if your book's definition of STP implies "1 bar" of pressure. But in real life, some gases are easier to compress than a typical ideal gas, and some are harder to compress. i.e. the molar volume will not always be that ...

  10. Why does ideal gas law fail at times? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/why-does-ideal-gas-law-fail-at-times

    If Z = 1, the gas is completely ideal. If Z> 1, the gas has a larger volume than the ideal volume, and thus, is less easily compressed than an ideal gas. For instance, the true Z for CO2 is about 0.99435 at 1.013 bar and 15∘C, so CO2 is approximately ideal. Assuming ideality, we would use Z = 1 (no units) and find ¯¯ ¯V to be:

  11. When should I use the ideal gas law and not the combined gas ......

    socratic.org/questions/when-should-i-use-the-ideal-gas-law-and-not-the...

    Ideal Gas Law: PV=nRT. Combined Gas Law: P 1 ⋅ V 1 T 1 = P 2 ⋅ V 2 T 2. The difference is the presence of "n" the number of moles of a gas, in the Ideal Gas Law. Both laws deal with pressure, volume, and temperature, but only the ideal Gas Law will allow you to make predictions when you vary the amount of gas.
