The Ideal Gas Law for Temperature calculator computes the temperature (T) of a gas based on the pressure (P), volume (V) and number of moles (n) using the Ideal Gas Law and the universal gas constant (R) .
INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:
- (n) Amount of substance (gas)
- (P) Pressure
- (V) Volume
Gas Temperature (T): The calculator returns the temperature in degrees Kelvin. However, this can be automatically converted to compatible units via the pull-down menu.
The Math / Science
The ideal gas law is the equation of state of a hypothetical ideal gas. It is a good approximation to the behavior of many gases under many conditions. The ideal gas law is often represented in its common form:
where:
- P - pressure of the gas
- T - temperature of the gas
- n - amount of the gas, typically specified in moles (mol)
- V - volume of the gas
- R - the universal gas constant
This calculator solves the Ideal Gas Law equation for temperature(T).

The Ideal Gas law, expressed as PV = nRT can be solved for the following parameters:
