UAE experiences high temperatures, especially during the summer months. The
ideal gas law is essential in HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning)
systems for regulating air pressure, temperature, and volume to maintain
comfortable indoor environments.

According to KMT, the air inside an air conditioning system in the UAE consists of numerous tiny
particles (molecules) that are in constant motion. When the air conditioning is turned on, the system
cools the air. As the air molecules lose heat energy, they slow down, and their kinetic energy
decreases. This decrease in kinetic energy corresponds to a lower temperature.

Gas Laws
Gas properties are explained macroscopically - using the relationships among pressure,
volume, temperature, moles, and the gas constant.

P = pressure in atm/kPa/torr/mmHg etc.


V = volume in L
n = moles of gas
R = gas constant
T = temperature in Kelvin (Celcius + 273.15)
Gas Laws
Law Relationship Formula

Boyle’s Law At constant T and n, P1 V1 = P 2 V2


P and V are inversely proportional.

Charles’ Law At constant P and n, V1 = V2


V and T are proportional. T1 T2

Gay-Lussac’s Law At constant V and n, P1 = P2


P and T are proportional. T1 T2

Combined Gas Law At constant n, P1 V1 = P2 V2


relates P, V, and T T1 T2

Avogadro’s Law At constant T and P, V1 = V2


n is proportional to V n1 = n 2
Ideal Gas Law

There are several R values listed on the equation sheet, they differ in the units for
pressure.

J = LᐧkPa
When P is in atm

When P is in torr or mmHg


Ideal Gas Law

The ideal gas formula can be used to solve for molar mass or
density of a gas.

Molar Mass (g/mol)= Density (g/L) x R x Kelvin Temperature


Pressure
Dalton's Law of Partial Pressure
According to Dalton's Law of Partial
Pressure, the sum of all the partial
pressures of each gas in a mixture of
gasses is equal to the total pressure.

P = PA + PB + PC...
where A, B, and C are different gases.
Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressure
This is often used when gases are
collected “over water” as shown in the
image:

As the gas is produced, the water is


displaced and the water in the inverted
vessel will empty while the gas is
collected.
Mole Fractions
Mole fraction:
χA = moles A/total moles

If a mixture is 3.0 mol O2 and 4.0 mol H2, the mole fraction of O2 = 3.0
moles/(3.0+4.0 moles) = 0.43
Partial pressure of gas A can be calculated:
partial pressureA = χA * total pressure
