 Ideal gas law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The ideal gas law is the equation of state of an ideal gas.
The state of an amount of gas is determined by its pressure, volume, and temperature.
The ideal gas law can also be derived from first principles using the kinetic theory of gases, if the molecules are assumed to be hard spheres.

The constant R on the right-hand side of the equation is a universal constant and has a value of 8.31447 J/mol·K. This single equation can predict the behavior of a gas even if multiple conditions are changed simultaneously.
The gas laws were discovered empirically—that is, scientists performed experiments, observed the behavior of gases, and came up with equations that fit that behavior.
A gas particle has kinetic energy in proportion to its speed: the faster it is moving, the greater its kinetic energy.

 What is the Ideal Gas Law?
An ideal gas is defined as one in which all collisions between atoms or molecules are perfectly eleastic and in which there are no intermolecular attractive forces.
The ideal gas law states that at a temperature of 273 K and a pressure of 1 atmosphere, 1 mole of any gas occupies a volume of 22.4 liters.
The universal gas constant has a value which depends only upon the units in which the pressure and volume are measured.

 Valve Sizing Calculations - Fisher Regulators
Using the principle of conservation of energy, Daniel Bernoulli found that as a liquid flows through an orifice, the square of the fluid velocity is directly proportional to the pressure differential across the orifice and inversely proportional to the specific gravity of the fluid.
A blending equation, called the Universal Gas Sizing Equation, combines equations (A) and (B) by means of a sinusoidal function, and is based on the "perfect gas" laws.
It is apparent that accurate valve sizing for gases that requires use of the dual coefficient is not sufficient to describe both the capacity and the recovery characteristics of the valve.

 Ideal Gas Law   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
An ideal gas is a gas that conforms, in physical behaviour, to a particular, idealized relation between pressure, volume, and temperature called the ideal gas law.
Although no gas has these properties, the behaviour of real gases is described quite closely by the ideal gas law at sufficiently high temperatures and low pressures, when relatively large distances between molecules and their high speeds overcome any interaction.
The ideal gas law may be written in a form applicable to any gas, according to Avogadro's law (q.v.), if the constant specifying the quantity of gas is expressed in terms of the number of molecules of gas.

 Equation of State   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
If we divide both sides of the general equation by the mass of the gas, the volume becomes the specific volume, which is the inverse of the gas density.
We also define a new gas constant (R), which is equal to the universal gas constant divided by the mass per mole of the gas.
The value of the new constant depends on the type of gas as opposed to the universal gas constant, which is the same for all gases.

 The Alder-Wainwright gas-solid phase transition.
In equation (12), the first two terms may be recognized as, effectively, the “ideal gas” terms and the last the hard-core term.
The first of equations (13) is recognized as the Sakur-Tetrode equation, to which the SPT equation for the entropy reduces in circumstances of large volumes and dilute densities.  Although the so-called ideal gas contribution to the entropy, S
(13), has the identical functional form as the Sakur-Tetrode equation for an ideal gas, the volume which appears in that function is related to the temperature and pressure by the SPT equation of state, (8), not by the ideal gas law, the first of equations (9).

Since gas pressure is the result from collisions between gas particles and surfaces, anything that increases the number of collisions per unit of time will increase pressure.
The value of the Universal Gas Constant depends on the units used for the remainder of the terms in the ideal gas equation.
A simple restatement of this equation, assuming that n, the number of moles of the gas remain constant, makes it possible to calculate P, V or T even when external conditions are changing.

The terms gas and vapour are synonymous but vapour relates to the gaseous phase at a temperature and pressure close to that at which the gas would condense into a liquid.
Applying the three gas laws, for a change to occur in the state of a gas, heat energy is either added or taken away from the gas.
The volume, temperature and gas constant remain the same and pressure is therefore proportional to n, the number of moles.

 Ideal Gas Properties
Thus, a real gas is said to "behave as" an ideal gas, when the pressure is low enough that the higher order pressure-dependent terms in the equations of state can be neglected.
Since an ideal gas is a special case of a pure substance, the state is specified by giving the values of two properties.
Of course, the P-v-T surface for an ideal gas is much simpler that that for the general case of a pure substance.

 BookRags: Ideal Gas Law Summary
An ideal gas is one in which all collisions between molecules or atoms are perfectly elastic and in which there are no intermolecular attractive or repulsive forces.
Although no real gas is actually ideal and so can only approach the behavior implied by the ideal gas equation, they do act as if they were ideal gases at and below atmospheric pressure and so the concept is very useful in reality.
The gas constant arises from a combination of the proportionality constants in the three empirical gas laws and has a value that depends only upon the units in which the pressure and volume are measured.

The ideal gas law is one of the fundamental principles used in calculations involving gas flow in air pollution-related work.
This law is used to calculate actual gas flow rates based on the quantity of gas present at standard pressures and temperatures.
The ideal gas law is accurate as long as the pressures are relatively similar to normal ambient atmospheric pressures.

 Boyle's law   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Boyle's law (also known as the Boyle Mariotte law) is one of the gas laws, and relates the volume and pressure of an ideal gas held at a constant temperature.
To maintain the constant during an increase in pressure of a gas, at fixed temperature, requires that the volume decrease.
The three gas laws can be generalized by the universal gas equation.
