Worked example

Find the pressure when Volume = 0.0224 m³, Moles = 1 mol, Temperature = 273 K.

Using pV = nRT: Pressure = 101330 Pa.

Frequently asked questions

What is the formula for Ideal gas law?

pV = nRT.

What do the letters stand for, and what units are used?

Pressure in Pa, Volume in m³, Moles in mol, Temperature in K.

How do you calculate pressure?

Put the values into pV = nRT. For example, with Volume = 0.0224 m³, Moles = 1 mol, Temperature = 273 K, pressure = 101330 Pa.

Can I solve for a different value?

Yes. In the calculator above, pick the circle next to any value (pressure, volume, moles, temperature) and fill in the others: it rearranges the formula for you.
