  1. A balloon holds 12.3 L of air at 1 atm and 300 K. Using R = 0.08206 L·atm/(mol·K), how many moles of gas is that, to 0.01 mol, Ari?

  2. A sealed bag holds 10 L of air at 2 atm and 290 K. Using R = 0.08206 L·atm/(mol·K), how many moles of gas is that, to 0.01 mol, Bo?

  3. A bike tire holds 8.21 L of air at 1.5 atm (absolute) and 250 K. Using R = 0.08206 L·atm/(mol·K), how many moles is that, to 0.01 mol, Kira?

  4. Pressure is in pascals and volume in cubic meters. Which value of R fits PV = nRT, Luz?

    • 101.325 J/(mol·K)
    • 0.08206 J/(mol·K)
    • 8.314 J/(mol·K)
  5. Why are there two values of R, 0.08206 and 8.314, Milo?

    • They are one constant in two sets of units
    • One is for gases and one for liquids
    • They come from two different gases
  6. In PV = nRT, what does n stand for, Noah?

    • The amount of gas, in moles
    • The mass of gas, in grams
    • The number of liters
  7. In PV = nRT, which unit must T be in, Pia?

    • Either °C or K, since they match
    • Kelvins
    • Degrees Celsius, as on a thermometer
  8. Which rearrangement of PV = nRT gives n, Tala?

    • n = PV ÷ (RT)
    • n = PVRT
    • n = RT ÷ (PV)
  9. Which rearrangement of PV = nRT gives V, Zee?

    • V = nRT ÷ P
    • V = nRTP
    • V = P ÷ (nRT)
  10. Which rearrangement of PV = nRT gives T, Esme?

    • T = PV ÷ (nR)
    • T = nR ÷ (PV)
    • T = PVnR

About this worksheet

The combined and ideal gas laws. Every version has 10 questions, and the answer key prints on the second page.

What your child will learn

  • I can use PV = nRT with R = 0.08206 L·atm/(mol·K) to find n, V or T, with T in kelvins.
  • I can use the combined law P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂ and reduce it to Boyle, Charles or Gay-Lussac.
  • I can pick the R that matches the units, and find a molar mass from gas data.

Standard: none (TX, FL)

Words to know

ideal gas law: PV = nRT

gas constant R: 0.08206 L·atm/(mol·K), or 8.314 J/(mol·K) in SI units

combined gas law: P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂ for a fixed amount of gas

Common mistakes

Your child turned the fraction over. From PV = nRT, n = PV ÷ (RT).

Your child used Celsius in a gas law. PV = nRT and the combined law need kelvins: add 273.15.

Your child used R in the wrong units. With liters and atm use 0.08206 L·atm/(mol·K); with pascals and cubic meters use 8.314 J/(mol·K).

Questions parents ask

What is the most common mistake with the combined and ideal gas laws?

Your child turned the fraction over. From PV = nRT, n = PV ÷ (RT).

Are these 10th grade science worksheets free to print?
