This equation give the relation between pressure P, volume V and absolute temperature T of a gas.
PV = nRT
Derivation.
According to Boyle’s law,
V ∝ \(\frac{1}{P}\) …(1)
According to Charle’s law,
V ∝ T …(2)
Comparing (1) and (2), we get
\(\frac{PV}{T}\)= constant
As PV = RT
For n moles of gas PV = nRT
This is perfect or ideal gas equation.
