Answer:
Avogadro's law.
Explanation:
Avogadro’s law states that, equal volumes of all gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules.
Mathematically,
V n
V = Kn where V = volume in cm3, dm3, ml or L; n = number of moles of gas;
K = mathematical constant.
The ideal gas equation is a combination of Boyle's law, Charles' law and Avogadro’s law.
V 1/P at constant temperature (Boyle’s law)
V T at constant pressure ( Charles’law)
V n at constant temperature and pressure ( Avogadro’s law )
Combining the equations yields,
V nT/P
Introducing a constant,
V = nRT/P
PV = nRT
Where P = pressure in atm, Pa, torr, mmHg or Nm-2; V = volume in cm3, dm3, ml or L; T = temperature in Kelvin; n = number of moles of gas in mol; R = molar gas constant = 0.082 dm3atmK-1mol-1
