Proponent of the
Combined Gas Law and
came up in 1834

About
The combined gas law makes use of the
relationships shared by pressure, volume, and
temperature: the variables found in other gas
laws, such as Boyle's law, Charles' law and
Gay-Lussac's law.

Formula

Where:
Pi = initial pressure
Vi = initial volume
Ti = initial temperature
Pf = final pressure
Vf= final volume
Tf = final temperature
Application
The combined gas law can be used to
explain the mechanics where pressure,
temperature, and volume are affected. For
example: air conditioners, refrigerators and
the formation of clouds and also use in fluid
mechanics and thermodynamics.

Refrigerators apply the combined

gas law when they remove heat

are the container that hold the

THERMODYNAMICS AND
RELATIONS TO GAS LAWS
is the branch of physics that deals with the
relationships between heat and other forms
of energy. In particular, it describes how
thermal energy is converted to and from
other forms of energy and how it affects
matter.

IDEAL GAS LAWS IN

THERMODYNAMICS
In an ideal gas, there is no molecule-molecule
interaction, and only elastic collisions are allowed.
It is a good approximation to the behavior of many
gases under many conditions, although it has
several limitations.

ATOMS AND MODULES IN A GAS

Atoms and molecules in a gas are
typically widely separated, as shown.
Because the forces between them are
quite weak at these distances, they
are often described by the ideal gas
law.

ISOTHERMAL - BOYLE'S LAW

Mariotte added the important
provision that temperature remain
constant. A constant temperature
process is said to be isothermal

ISOBARIC - CHARLES' LAW

An isobaric process is one that
takes place without any change
in pressure. The ratio of volume
to temperature is constant
when pressure is constant.

ISOCHORIC - PRESSURE LAW

An isochoric process is one that
takes place without any change in
volume. The ratio of pressure to
temperature is constant when
volume is constant.

DALTON'S LAW OF
PARTIAL PRESSURE
the total pressure of a mixture of gases

WHAT IS DALTON'S
LAW OF PARTIAL
PRESSURE?
Dalton’s law of partial pressures is
a gas law which states that the
total pressure exerted by a mixture
of gases is equal to the sum of the
partial pressures exerted by each
individual gas in the mixture..

RELATIONS WITH
IDEAL GAS
This empirical relation was
stated by the English chemist
John Dalton in 1801. It follows
from the kinetic theory of gases
under the assumption of a
perfect (ideal) gas and assumes
no chemical interaction
between the component gases

MOLE FRACTIONS
The mole fraction is a way
of expressing the relative
proportion of one
particular gas within a
mixture of gases

EXPRESSING PARTIAL
PRESSURES IN TERMS
OF MOLE FRACTION
The mole fraction of a specific
gas in a mixture of gases is
equal to the ratio of the partial
pressure of that gas to the total
pressure exerted by the gaseous
mixture.

COLLECTION OF A
GAS OVER WATER
The Law of Partial Pressures is
commonly applied in looking at
the pressure of a closed
container of gas and water. The
total pressure of this system is
the pressure that the gas exerts
on the liquid.
