What it calculates

The gas law solver lets you enter the known variables of a problem — pressure, volume, temperature, moles — and automatically solves for the unknown, applying the ideal gas law or the specific laws of Boyle, Charles, and Gay-Lussac when one variable stays constant.

Ideal gas law

PV = nRT, relating pressure, volume, moles, and temperature of an ideal gas.

Boyle's law

At constant temperature, relates pressure and volume: P₁V₁ = P₂V₂.

Charles's law

At constant pressure, relates volume and temperature: V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂.

Combined gas law

Relates pressure, volume, and temperature between two states of the same gas when no variable stays constant.

Built-in unit conversion

Works with atm, kPa, mmHg, liters, and Celsius or Kelvin interchangeably.

PV = nRT with R = 0.0821 atm·L/(mol·K)
