pressure

[wayneo]

can anyone tell me what the different things stand for in the formula
PV = nRT

[Hootenanny]

P = Pressure (pascals)
V = Volume (m3)
n = The number of moles
R = Molar Gas constant = 8.31 (J / mol K)
T = Absolute Temperature (Kelvin)

Btw, this would have been better posted in the Intro Physics Section, I only just came across it by chance.
