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

Wejście
Boyle's: V₁=4L, P₁=2atm, P₂=4atm
Wynik
V₂ = P₁V₁/P₂ = 2×4/4 = 2L
Często zadawane pytania
When should I use ideal gas law vs combined?
Ideal: when n (moles) is constant or unknown. Combined: when gas amount is fixed, conditions change.
What temperature units should I use?
Always Kelvin (K = °C + 273.15) in gas law equations. Celsius and Fahrenheit don't work.
Is the ideal gas approximation accurate?
Good for most gases at normal conditions. Poor at high pressure or low temperature. Use van der Waals for precision.
