  2. Ideal gas law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_gas_law

    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 ...

    Normal boiling points for pure substances, bubble and dew points for zeotropic blends, or normal boiling point and azeotropic temperature for the azeotropic blends, at 101,325 Pa (1 atmosphere) and in degrees Celsius; Critical temperature in degrees Celsius; Absolute critical pressure in kilopascals

  4. Vapor pressures of the elements (data page) - Wikipedia

    Values are given in terms of temperature necessary to reach the specified pressure. Valid results within the quoted ranges from most equations are included in the table for comparison. A conversion factor is included into the original first coefficients of the equations to provide the pressure in pascals (CR2: 5.006, SMI: -0.875).

  5. Standard temperature and pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_temperature_and...

    This standard is also called normal temperature and pressure (abbreviated as NTP). However, a common temperature and pressure in use by NIST for thermodynamic experiments is 298.15 K (25 °C, 77 °F) and 1 bar (14.5038 psi, 100 kPa).

  6. Gas laws - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_laws

    The laws describing the behaviour of gases under fixed pressure, volume, amount of gas, and absolute temperature conditions are called gas laws.The basic gas laws were discovered by the end of the 18th century when scientists found out that relationships between pressure, volume and temperature of a sample of gas could be obtained which would hold to approximation for all gases.

  7. Ideal gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_gas

    Many gases such as nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, noble gases, some heavier gases like carbon dioxide and mixtures such as air, can be treated as ideal gases within reasonable tolerances [2] over a considerable parameter range around standard temperature and pressure. Generally, a gas behaves more like an ideal gas at higher temperature and lower ...

  8. Nitrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen

    A pressure-sensitive nitrogen capsule known commonly as a "widget" allows nitrogen-charged beers to be packaged in cans and bottles. [91] [92] Nitrogen tanks are also replacing carbon dioxide as the main power source for paintball guns. Nitrogen must be kept at a higher pressure than CO 2, making N 2 tanks heavier and more expensive. [93]

  9. Thermodynamic diagrams - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_diagrams

    Consider a gas in cylinder with a free floating piston resting on top of a volume of gas V 1 at a temperature T 1. If the gas is heated so that the temperature of the gas goes up to T 2 while the piston is allowed to rise to V 2 as in Figure 1, then the pressure is kept the same in this process due to the free floating piston being allowed to ...
