ideal gas law [īdē′əl] Etymology: Gk, idea, form, chaos, gas; AS, lagu, law the rule that PV = nRT, with the product of pressure (P) and volume (V) equal to the product of the number of moles of gas (n), absolute temperature (T), and a gas constant (R).

| According to the ideal gas law, PV = nRT, raising the pressure will keep the oxygen gas volume small. Insight into ideal rubbery behavior can be gleaned by comparing equation 8 to the ideal gas law, p = nRT(1/V), (9) where p = pressure; n = moles of gas; V = volume. Rivier says the deviation may stem from subtle differences between the physical properties of an actual network of bubbles and the theoretical ideal -- just as real gases stray from ideal gas laws. |
