Lab. P=kT
« on: February 03, 2009, 05:37:44 PM »
The question is "In terms of ideal gas law, what variables are represented by k?" Isn't k just the amount P and T are proportional to one another? I have no idea how to answer this.

Express k in terms of n, R and V.

Let's say you have ax=by. You are told that x=ky and you are asked to find out what k is.

x = (b/a) y

x = k y

Compare these two - obviously k = b/a.

So would it be K=nR/V?
Also thanks for helping.
