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.
There are several R values listed on the equation sheet, they differ in the units for
pressure.
J = LᐧkPa
When P is in atm
The ideal gas formula can be used to solve for molar mass or
density of a gas.
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:
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
