  2. Boyle's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boyle's_law

    For a fixed mass of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional. [2] Boyle's law is a gas law, stating that the pressure and volume of a gas have an inverse relationship. If volume increases, then pressure decreases and vice versa, when the temperature is held constant.

  3. Ideal gas law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_gas_law

    Isotherms of an ideal gas for different temperatures. The curved lines are rectangular hyperbolae of the form y = a/x. They represent the relationship between pressure (on the vertical axis) and volume (on the horizontal axis) for an ideal gas at different temperatures: lines that are farther away from the origin (that is, lines that are nearer to the top right-hand corner of the diagram ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_laws

    The laws describing the behaviour of gases under fixed pressure, volume, amount of gas, and absolute temperature conditions are called gas laws.The basic gas laws were discovered by the end of the 18th century when scientists found out that relationships between pressure, volume and temperature of a sample of gas could be obtained which would hold to approximation for all gases.

    In 1968, Anderson developed (∂T/∂P) v =(αK) −1 for the thermal gradient, [7] and its reciprocal correlate the thermal pressure and temperature in a constant volume heating process by (∂P/∂T) v =αK. [8] Note, thermal pressure is the pressure change in a constant volume heating process, and expressed by integration of αK.

    However, the minimum and maximum spinodal points are not at the same pressure. Therefore, at a temperature , the phase change is characterized by the pressure , which lies within the range of set by the spinodal points (< <), and by the molar volume of liquid and vapor , which lie outside the range of set by the spinodal points (< and >).

    Later, in 1802, Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac published results of similar experiments, indicating a linear relationship between volume and temperature: =. Dalton's law (1801) of partial pressure states that the pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the pressures of all of the constituent gases alone.

  9. Compressibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility

    This pressure dependent transition occurs for atmospheric oxygen in the 2,500–4,000 K temperature range, and in the 5,000–10,000 K range for nitrogen. [ 7 ] In transition regions, where this pressure dependent dissociation is incomplete, both beta (the volume/pressure differential ratio) and the differential, constant pressure heat capacity ...
