Ideal Gas Law

r
K
"""
The ideal gas law, also called the general gas equation, is the
equation of state of a hypothetical ideal gas. It is a good approximation
of the behavior of many gases under many conditions, although it has
several limitations. It was first stated by Benoît Paul Émile Clapeyron
in 1834 as a combination of the empirical Boyle's law, Charles's law,
Avogadro's law, and Gay-Lussac's law.[1] The ideal gas law is often written
in an empirical form:
 ------------
 | PV = nRT |
 ------------
P	=	Pressure (Pa)
V	=	Volume (m^3)
n	=	Amount of substance (mol)
R	=	Universal gas constant
T	=	Absolute temperature (Kelvin)
