The ideal gas law allows a scientist to calculate the number of moles that the other gas laws do not. The ideal gas law is given as

P V = n RT

rearranging the equation by dividing both side by "RT", we get

PV/(RT) = nRT/(RT)

n = PV/(RT)

inserting the values of pressure, volume and temperature, we get number of moles.

<u>The ideal gas law allows the scientists to calculate the number of moles of the gas whereas other gas laws deal with the temperature, pressure and volume of the gas only.</u>

Further Explanation:

The ideal gas law for an ideal gas establishes the relation between the pressure, volume, temperature and the number of moles of a gas. According to the ideal gas law, the product of the pressure and volume of the gas is directly proportional to the product of the number of moles and the temperature of the gas.

The ideal gas law can be represented mathematically as.

{PV} ∞ {nT}

Remove the proportionality constant.

 \boxed{\text{}PV=nRT}

Here, P is the pressure of gas, V is the volume of the gas,   is the number of moles, R is the gas constant and T is the temperature of the gas.

The other gas laws are the Boyle’s Law and the Charles’ Law. The Boyle’s Law states that at constant temperature, the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas.  

On the other hand, the Charles’ Law states that at constant pressure, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas.

It shows that the other gas laws only establish the relation between the pressure, temperature and the volume of the gas but do not deal with the number of the moles of gas. <u>The number of moles can only be known from the ideal gas law.</u>

Kay [80]
Biodiversity boosts ecosystem productivity where each species, no matter how small, all have an important role to play.A larger number of plant species means a greater variety of crops. Greater species diversity ensures natural sustainability for all life forms.

A girl pulls on a 10-kg wagon with a constant horizontal force of 30 n. if there are no other horizontal forces, what is the wag
olga2289 [7]
Force = mass * acceleration
F = ma

Given m = 10 kg, F = 30 N;

F = ma
30 = 10a

Solving for a:
a = 3 m/s^2

The acceleration is 3 meters per second squared.

-- find the horizontal and vertical components of F1.

-- find the horizontal and vertical components of F2.

-- find the horizontal and vertical components of F3.

-- add up the 3 horizontal components; their sum is the horizontal component of the resultant.

-- add up the 3 vertical components; their sum is the vertical component of the resultant.

-- the magnitude of the resultant is the square root of (vertical component^2 + horizontal component^2)

-- the direction of the resultant is the angle whose tangent is (vertical component/horizontal component), starting from the positive x-direction.
