Application of Combined Gas Law
The application of combined gas law is mentioned below:
- When working with gases at standard temperatures and pressures, the combined gas law is useful. Its accuracy decreases at high temperatures and pressures, just like other gas laws that are based on ideal behavior.
- In order to forecast weather, it can be used, for instance, to compute the pressure, volume, or temperature of the gas in clouds.
- Electric appliances used in everyday life like refrigerators and air conditioners are all predicted by the law.
- Helium Balloons also use this law: A balloon will have a specific pressure, temperature, and volume if it is filled with helium on Earth. The balloon will rise if it is released. The temperature and air pressure decrease as the balloon ascends higher into the atmosphere. The balloon’s volume will decrease as it becomes colder and increase as the air becomes thinner. As the balloon rises, the variations in pressure and temperature will cause it to take on a new volume.
Combined Gas Law Formula
Combined Gas Law as the name suggest is combination of different gas laws. The different gas laws that combine to form Combined Gas Law include Boyle’s law, Charles’ Law and Gay Lussac’s law.
In this article, we will learn about combined gas law, its formula and derivation. We will also learn briefly the three gas laws individually.
