Ideal Gas Equation of State
PV = nRT
or
V
PV = RT, V =
n
Some definitions:
molar volume
mass
energy
extensive variable
- depends on the size of the system (e.g., V, m, E)
density
intensive variable
- does not depend on the size of the system (e.g., T, P, )
or
V
PV = RT, V =
n
(constant T )
T must be constant (Charles Law)
At
constant P, the ratio of V and
P1V1 = P2 V2
V1 V2
=
T1 T2
(constant P )

At low pressures, all gases
converge to ideal behavior
