Welcome to the Gas Phase


Welcome to the gas phase, it's not all fun and games,
PV=nRT, it's enough to drive me insane,
Laws of Boyle and Avogadro, and Charles, they would say,
Measure volume and pressure, extrapolate to zero K,

Gas Phase, welcome to the gas phase, PV is
N, n, n, n, n, n, n, n, n, R, T, T, T,
Use it, along with stoichiometry

Welcome to the gas phase, where Dalton's law rules,
Calculate partial pressure, mole fraction is the clue,
Kinetic theory is applied, gives speed root-mean-square,
Effusion and diffusion rates, make me pull my hair

Gas Phase, Welcome to the gas phase, PV is
N, n, n, n, n, R, T,
Van der Waals', new equation, see.

P +a/Vm2, times Vm-b, is RT, for high P or low T
