The Ideal Gas Law for Volume calculator computes the volume (V) of a gas based on the pressure (P), temperature (T) and number of moles (n) using the Ideal Gas Law and the universal gas constant (R) .
INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:
- (n) Moles (amount of substance)
- (P) Pressure
- (T) Tmperature
Gas Volume (V): The calculator returns the volume in cubic meters. 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 volume(V).
