2.3.1 - General Gas Equation

For the transition from state 1 to state 2 of an enclosed quantity of gas, Boyle- Mariotte’s and Gay-Lussac’s law then give us pressure, volume and temperature upon transition from state p1, V1, T1 to state p2, V2, T2


Formula 2.3.1.1

It follows from formula 2.3.1.1 that the product of pressure and volume divided by the absolute temperature results in a constant value for all states of the gas.
