This formula is called the ideal gas law.It is valid if the temperature (in kelvin) is at least 50% higher than the temperature at the critical point and the pressure does not exceed the critical pressure. This is because the molecules get more energy and move faster.Ĭ is a constant, proportional to the number of gas molecules If the volume is constant and the temperature increases, the pressure also increases. The pressure of a gas is related to temperature and volume. Relation between temperature, pressure and volume (ideal gas law): If you measure the pressure in Pascal at sea-level, you will find 101325 Pa. At sea-level the pressure is also defined as 1 atmosphere, that's why 1 atmosphere equals 760 torr. It was calibrated that on sea-level the height of the mercury was 760 mm. The reason that mercury is used is that the thermal expansion of mercury is big and is mostly homogeneous. If the pressure changes, the level of the mercury in the tube changes with it.
The unit of pressure used to be torr, also known as mmHG (millimeter mercury). The unit is Pascal (Pa), also known as N/m 2. Pressure ( p) is a derived quantity with its own name.
