The volume V of an ideal gas varies directly with the temperature T and inversely with the pressure P. If a cylinder of 50 liters contains oxygen at a temperature of 200 K and a pressure of 5 atmospheres, what would the gas pressure be if the volume was changed to 30 liters and the temperature raised to 240 K?
If the ideal gas law (PV = kT) is used to find P when T and V are given, but there is an error of 0.3% in measuring T and an error of 0.8% in measuring V, find approximately  the greastest percent error in P?  TOPIC:TOTAL DIFFERENTATION
Compute the density in units of of an ideal gas under the following conditions: a) At and Torr pressure (1 Torr = 1mm Hg) this is called loschmidt number. b) In a vacuum of Torr at room temperature . This number is useful one for the experimentalist to know by heart. (10^-3 Torr = 1 micron)
