CHAPTER 7.3 · SIMULATION

Ideal Gas Explorer

How to use: Move the sliders for moles, temperature and volume. Watch the pressure. Or press a Trial button to match your worksheet.

Sample data: the simulator uses P = nRT ÷ V with R = 8.31 L·kPa/(mol·K). Particle counts and speeds are a picture, not to scale.
