units

[Karina Koo 2H]

what are the units for PV=nRT?

[Jim Brown 14B Lec1]

P: atm
V: L
n: mol
R: J/k.mol
T: K

[Henry Dudley 1G]

Is KJ per mol an acceptable unit of measurement when solving for the change in internal energy?

[Xingzheng Sun 2K]

Can the unit for Pressure be other than atm?

[eden tefera 2B]

Pressure can sometimes be given in Pascals or kilopascals as well.

If you ever get pressure given int he units of "bar", you can just assume that its a 1:1 ratio with "atm". The conversion factor is very close to one, so Lavelle said we can treat bar as equal to atm.

[CHEM 14B Lover]

Any combination of units work AS LONG AS they are related by the correct units in gas constant R. Conversely, to use R you either have to convert given values' units so they work for R or convert R into a different form of itself with the right units.

[Millicent Navarro 1I]

Pressure has a variety of units. Because of this, I double check the units of all the givens so I know which pressure unit to use when solving a problem.
