Ideal Gas
A simplified model of a gas with low density, no intermolecular forces, zero particle size, and elastic collisions. Ideal Gas Law
An equation relating pressure, volume, temperature, and moles of an ideal gas: PV = nRT or PV = NkBT. Universal Gas Constant
A constant in the ideal gas law, denoted as R, with a value of 8.314 J/mol K. Boltzmann's Constant
A constant in the ideal gas law, denoted as kB, with a value of 1.38 x 10^-23 J/K. Kelvin
The temperature scale used in ideal gas law calculations, where 0 Kelvin is absolute zero. STP
Standard Temperature and Pressure, conditions of 0°C (273 K) and 1 atm pressure. Molar Volume
The volume occupied by one mole of an ideal gas at STP, approximately 22.4 liters. Boyle's Law
A special case of the ideal gas law where pressure is inversely proportional to volume at constant temperature. Charles' Law
A special case of the ideal gas law where volume is directly proportional to temperature at constant pressure. Gay-Lussac's Law
A special case of the ideal gas law where pressure is directly proportional to temperature at constant volume. Elastic Collision
A type of collision where total kinetic energy is conserved, typical in ideal gas particle interactions. Avogadro's Number
The number of particles in one mole, approximately 6.02 x 10^23. Pressure
The force exerted by gas particles per unit area on the walls of a container. Volume
The amount of space occupied by a gas, typically measured in liters or cubic meters. Temperature
A measure of the average kinetic energy of gas particles, affecting pressure and volume.
