Dive into the dynamics of gas pressure, temperature, and volume. Learn how these factors interplay in the Ideal Gas Equation, PV=nRT. Understand the conditions that define an ideal gas and how this equation can determine pressure, volume, or temperature. Created by Ryan Scott Patton.
This video explains the ideal gas law, focusing on the constant 'R'. It demonstrates how 'R' remains the same for any ideal gas, regardless of changes in other variables. The video also clarifies the calculation of 'R' under standard temperature and pressure (STP) using different units of measurement. Created by Ryan Scott Patton.
The ideal gas law relates four macroscopic properties of ideal gases (pressure, volume, number of moles, and temperature). If we know the values of three of these properties, we can use the ideal gas law to solve for the fourth. In this video, we'll use the ideal gas law to solve for the number of moles (and ultimately molecules) in a sample of gas. Created by Sal Khan.
The ideal gas law can be used to describe a change in state for an ideal gas. In this video, we'll apply the ideal gas law to the initial and final states of a gas to see how changes in temperature and pressure affect the volume of the gas. Created by Sal Khan.
