INPUT SUMMARY
Current calculation basis
Entered values: Amount of gas: 1 mol · Absolute temperature: 293.15 K · Volume: 0.024 m³
Converted SI values: amount = 1 SI · temperature = 293.15 SI · volume = 0.024 SI
Engineering interpretation: Using the current inputs, calculate ideal-gas pressure from amount of gas, absolute temperature and volume. The current result is 101.56 kPa.
ENGINEERING PRINCIPLE
The ideal gas law relates pressure, volume, amount of gas and absolute temperature for an idealized gas.
Calculate ideal-gas pressure from amount of gas, absolute temperature and volume.
FORMULA & VARIABLES
p = nRT / V
- p = absolute pressure (Pa)
- n = amount of gas (mol)
- R = 8.314462618 J/(mol·K)
- T = absolute temperature (K)
- V = volume (m³)
CALCULATION STEPS
How this result is assembled
- Convert the entered values to the SI basis required by the formula.
- Apply p = nRT / V to the converted values.
- Report 101.56 kPa in the selected output presentation and review the stated assumptions.
FORMULA VERIFICATION
Units, scope and reference
Reference: NIST SP 811 for unit relationships; standard classical mechanics and strength-of-materials derivations for the stated scalar relation.
Internal basis: All inputs are converted to the calculator’s SI base before the formula is evaluated.
Valid conditions: Positive finite scalar input values in the current calculator model.
Limitations: The gas is treated as ideal. Temperature must be absolute temperature in kelvin. Real-gas effects, phase change and mixtures are excluded.
