Answer to Problem 1PLA

The equation of ideal gas law is PV=NkBT.

Explanation of Solution

Ideal gas law is the equation of state of gas which describes the relation between the pressure, volume, number of molecules and absolute temperature of gas in a closed system.

The gases that obey the ideal gas equation are called ideal gas.

Write the expression for the ideal gas equation

    PV=NkBT

Here, P is the pressure, V is the volume, N is the number of molecules, kB is the Boltzmann’s constant and T is the absolute temperature.

Conclusion:

Thus, the equation of ideal gas law is PV=NkBT.
