Answer:
The equation is; P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂
Explanation:
Concept being tested: Combined gas law
We need to know the two gas laws that form the combined gas law
- The combined gas laws is derived from the Boyle's gas law and Charles's law.
- According to Boyle's law;
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
- On the other hard, according to Charles's law;
V₁/T₁= V₂/T₂
- The combine gas laws combines both Boyle's law and Charles's law.
- According to the combined gas law, the volume of a fixed mass of a gas i inversely proportional to pressure and directly proportional to its absolute temperature.
- Therefore, combining both Boyle's law and Charles's law, we get;
P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂
- Thus, based on Combined gas law, then
P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂
