Description

The Van der Waals equation as an adjustment of the ideal gas equation to better account for gas molecule volume and intermolecular interactions.

Chemistry

Did you know that everything is made out of chemicals? Chemistry is the study of matter: its composition, properties, and reactivity. This material roughly covers a first-year high school or college course, and a good understanding of algebra is helpful.

Non-ideal gas behavior

The ideal gas law works well for gases at standard temperature and pressure. In this tutorial, we will discuss the assumptions made when using the ideal gas equation, and what happens when gases are not at standard temperature and pressure.
