Ideal Gas Law Using Volume

The ideal gas law is the equation of state of a hypothetical ideal gas. An ideal gas is a theoretical gas composed of many randomly moving point particles whose only interactions are perfectly elastic collisions.

The pressure times the volume of an ideal gas equals the product of the molar gas constant, molar amount and temperature.

Formula

QuantityVariable["P", "Pressure"]*QuantityVariable["V", "Volume"] == Quantity[1, "MolarGasConstant"]*QuantityVariable["n", "Amount"]*QuantityVariable["T", "Temperature"]
