What is Boyle's Law?

Boyle's Law states that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume when temperature is constant.

What is Charles' Law?

Charles' Law states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature when pressure is constant.

Define Avogadro's Law.

Avogadro's Law states that equal volumes of gases, at the same temperature and pressure, contain the same number of molecules.

What does the Ideal Gas Law combine?

The Ideal Gas Law combines Boyle’s Law, Charles’s Law, and Avogadro’s Law into a single equation: PV = nRT.

What is the value of the Ideal Gas Constant (R) in L atm / mol K?

The value of the Ideal Gas Constant (R) is 0.0821 L atm / mol K.
