Answer» Anideal gasis atheoreticalgascomposed of many randomly movingpoint particleswhose only interactions are perfectlyelastic collisions. Ideal Gas Equation If we combine the results of all the above gas laws we get an equation which holds true for ideal gas. The most common form of this equation is, since PV= K and V/T =k thenPV/T = constantThus, Ideal Gas Equation is given asPV = nRTwhere, P= pressure of the gas; V=volume of the gas; n= Number of Moles; T=Absolute temperature; R=Ideal Gas constant also known as Boltzmann Constant = 0.082057 L atm K-1mol-1.Using this equation, the study of any gas is possible under assumptions of STP conditions and subjecting the gas to reasonable restrictions to make it behave similarly to an Ideal gas. |
