Document Summary

Ideal gas law expresses behavior that real gases approach at low p and high t. It is an equation of state: a gas"s state can be described by its p, v, t and n. It is an empirical equation based on experimental measurements: any gas that obeys this equation is said to behave ideally, gas stoichiometry, the molar volume of gas, from the ideal gas law, is given by, v = nrt/p. Standard temperature and pressure (stp) is represented by the conditions 0 degrees.
