The following three expressions V 1/P (at constant n, T) V T ( at constant n, P) V n (at constant T, P) can be combined to give V nT or V = constant (nT/P) • The proportionality constant is called the gas constant, represented by the letter R. • Inserting R into an equation gives V = RnT = nRT P P Multiplying both sides by P gives the following equation, which is known as the ideal gas law: PV = nRT • An ideal gas is defined as a hypothetical gaseous substance whose behavior is independent of attractive and repulsive forces and can be completely described by the ideal gas law. • The form of the gas constant depends on the units used for the other quantities in the expression — if V is expressed in liters (L), P in atmospheres (atm), T in kelvins (K), and n in moles (mol), then R = 0.082057 (L•atm)/(K•mol). • R can also have units of J/(K•mol) or cal/(K•mol). A particular set of conditions were chosen to use as a reference; 0ºC (273.15 K) and 1 atm pressure are referred to as standard temperature and pressure (STP). The volume of 1 mol of an ideal gas under standard conditions can be calculated using the variant of the ideal gas law: V = nRT = (1 mol) [0.082057 (L•atm)/(K•mol)] (273.15 K) = 22.41 L P 1 atm • The volume of 1 mol of an ideal gas at 0ºC and 1 atm pressure is 22.41 L, called the standard molar volume of an ideal gas. • The relationships described as Boyle’s, Charles’s, and Avogadro’s laws are simply special cases of the ideal gas law in which two of the four parameters (P, V, T, n) are held fixed.
