Gas Density vs Pressure (P)

Formula

Gas Density from Ideal Gas Law

Formula

d = PM / (RT)

Where:

  • d = density (g/L)
  • P = pressure (atm)
  • M = molar mass (g/mol)
  • R = 0.08206 L·atm/(mol·K)
  • T = temperature (K)
  • Derived from PV = nRT by substituting n = mass/M and d = mass/V.

    Esempio Risolto

    Calculate the density of air (avg M = 28.97 g/mol) at 1 atm and 273.15 K.

    1. 01d = PM / (RT)
    2. 02d = (1)(28.97) / (0.08206 × 273.15)
    3. 03d = 28.97 / 22.414
    4. 04d = 1.292 g/L

    Why does gas density depend on pressure and temperature?

    Unlike liquids, gases are compressible. Higher pressure packs more molecules into a given volume, increasing density. Higher temperature expands gas, decreasing density.

    What is the density of air at STP?

    Air has an average molar mass of about 28.97 g/mol. At STP (1 atm, 273.15 K), its density is approximately 1.29 g/L.

    Can I use this for real gases?

    At moderate conditions it works well. For very high pressures or low temperatures, use the van der Waals equation or compressibility factor corrections.
