Concept Introduction:

Ideal gas equation is an equation that is describing the state of an imaginary ideal gas.

$\text{PV}\text{=}\text{n RT}$

Where,

P is the pressure of the gas

V is the volume

n is the number of moles of gas

R is the universal gas constant $\text{(R=0}{\text{.0821LatmK}}^{\text{-1}}{\text{mol}}^{\text{-1}})$

T is the temperature
