Ideal Gas Pressure: Understanding the Behavior of Gases
by Yuvi K - December 24, 2023
What is ideal gas pressure?
Ideal gas pressure is the pressure exerted by a collection of molecules of ideal gas in a vessel. It is the pressure that would be exerted if all the molecules of the gas behaved according to a hypothetical model known as the ideal gas law. The ideal gas law states that the pressure of an ideal gas is proportional to its temperature and is inversely proportional to its volume. (एक आकार में, आदर्श गैस की दबाव उसके तापमान और वित्तर से आना-जाना के अनुपात में होती है)
Understanding Ideal Gas Pressure
Ideal gas pressure describes the behavior of an ideal gas in a container with a fixed volume and at a temperature that is large compared to the energy of the molecules. If the number of particles in the gas is constant, then increasing the temperature results in an increase in the pressure. Similarly, if the temperature is kept constant, decreasing the volume of the container increases the pressure due to the molecules bouncing off the walls at a faster rate.
Ideal Gas Pressure Graphical Representation
The behaviour of ideal gas pressure can be represented graphically in the form of a pressure-volume graph, where the pressure is shown on the vertical axis and the volume on the horizontal axis
It can be seen from the graph that the ideal gas pressure increases as the volume decreases and decreases as the volume increases. In other words, the pressure increases when the volume of the container decreases, since the molecules of the ideal gas are not able to move freely due to the decrease in the amount of space available.

Real world Applications of Ideal Gas Pressure
Ideal gas pressure is used in a variety of fields, ranging from atmospheric science to industrial engineering. For example, the ideal gas law is used to calculate the amount of pressure required to inflate a balloon, or the pressure exerted by a gas in a closed container. In addition, it is used to determine the optimal pressure for a system of pipes, which helps to ensure that the flow of a given gas through the pipes is not restricted.
