  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 ...

  3. Ideal gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_gas

    The ideal gas law is the equation of state for an ideal gas, given by: = where P is the pressure; V is the volume; n is the amount of substance of the gas (in moles) T is the absolute temperature; R is the gas constant, which must be expressed in units consistent with those chosen for pressure, volume and temperature.

  4. Ideal solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_solution

    An ideal solution or ideal mixture is a solution that exhibits thermodynamic properties analogous to those of a mixture of ideal gases. [1] The enthalpy of mixing is zero [2] as is the volume change on mixing by definition; the closer to zero the enthalpy of mixing is, the more "ideal" the behavior of the solution becomes.

  5. Specific volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_volume

    Specific volume for an ideal gas is related to the molar gas constant (R) and the gas's temperature (T), pressure (P), and molar mass (M): ν = R T P M {\displaystyle \nu ={\frac {RT}{PM}}} It's based on the ideal gas law , P V = n R T {\displaystyle PV={nRT}} , and the amount of substance , n = m / M {\textstyle n=m/M}

  6. Reference atmospheric model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_atmospheric_model

    The gas which comprises an atmosphere is usually assumed to be an ideal gas, which is to say: = Where ρ is mass density, M is average molecular weight, P is pressure, T is temperature, and R is the ideal gas constant. The gas is held in place by so-called "hydrostatic" forces. That is to say, for a particular layer of gas at some altitude: the ...

  7. International Standard Atmosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Standard...

    the ideal gas law in molar form, which relates pressure, density, and temperature: = at each geopotential altitude, where g is the standard acceleration of gravity, and R specific is the specific gas constant for dry air (287.0528J⋅kg −1 ⋅K −1). The solution is given by the barometric formula.

  8. Sackur–Tetrode equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sackur–Tetrode_equation

    The Sackur–Tetrode equation is an expression for the entropy of a monatomic ideal gas. [ 1 ] It is named for Hugo Martin Tetrode [ 2 ] (1895–1931) and Otto Sackur [ 3 ] (1880–1914), who developed it independently as a solution of Boltzmann's gas statistics and entropy equations, at about the same time in 1912.

  9. Thermodynamic activity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_activity

    The relative activity of a species i, denoted a i, is defined [4] [5] as: = where μ i is the (molar) chemical potential of the species i under the conditions of interest, μ o i is the (molar) chemical potential of that species under some defined set of standard conditions, R is the gas constant, T is the thermodynamic temperature and e is the exponential constant.
