Gas Laws

1: The kinetic-molecular theory

2: Measurement of pressure of gases

3: Empirical laws of gases

4: Ideal gas law

 

K = °C + 273

1 atm = 760 torr = 760 mm Hg

STP: standard Temperature (273 K) and pressure (1 atm).

 

 

Boyle's Law 

Charles's Law

Gay-Lussac's Law

 Use the Combined gas law to deduce the equation you need based on what is provided in the question. e.g. if the question gives you P and V and T is constant, cover up the T's and you are left with P1V1 = P2V2
