Combined Gas Law:  All three of the temp, pressure, volume laws can be combined to give the following equation:   

 

 

As with the other gas laws, it doesn’t matter which units you use for pressure or volume, but temperature must be in Kelvins.

                                          

Example:  a 2000ml baggie of air has a pressure of 1.1 atm in an oven that is at a

    temperature of 95 oC.  What is the baggie’s new volume when it is placed in a 

                weird, high-pressure freezer at 7.5 atm and a temp of  -17 oC?

 

 

 

 

 

Now you try it:  if a 330ml sample of air is at 99 kPa of pressure at a temperature of 350K, what would the pressure be if the volume went up to 420 ml and the temperature went down to 310K?  Answer
