  1. 1Boyle's law: P₁V₁ = P₂V₂ (constant T)
  2. 2Charles's law: V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂ (constant P)
  3. 3Gay-Lussac's: P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂ (constant V)
  4. 4Combined: P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

Exemples résolus

▾
Exemple 1
Donné:Boyle's: V₁=4L, P₁=2atm, P₂=4atm
Résultat:V₂ = P₁V₁/P₂ = 2×4/4 = 2L

Questions fréquentes

▾
Q

When should I use ideal gas law vs combined?

A

Ideal: when n (moles) is constant or unknown. Combined: when gas amount is fixed, conditions change.

Q

What temperature units should I use?

A

Always Kelvin (K = °C + 273.15) in gas law equations. Celsius and Fahrenheit don't work.

Q

Is the ideal gas approximation accurate?

A

Good for most gases at normal conditions. Poor at high pressure or low temperature. Use van der Waals for precision.
