Hi people. I've been scratching my head for some time now... My teacher of hydrology class keeps posting pV = mRT and I don't know why he is doing that. He's trying to get the density of the air. But I know it should go like this pV =mRT/M... Can someone clarify this for me? :s...

i had a question PV=nRT is the V the volume of the container or the gas and if it was the container and i had a balloon and i squeezed it decreasing the volume increasing the pressure will that increase the temperature? thank you

What am I missing? According to the ideal gas law, as volume increases, temperature increases. However I’m not sure I understand why. I certainly understand the motion of the molecules equals the kinetic energy of the molecules. The faster the molecules bounce about, the more thermal energy the...
