The CombinedGas
Law
Manipulating Variables in equations• Often in an equation we want to isolate some
variable, usually the unknown• From math: what ever you do to one side of an
equation you have to do to the other side• Doing this keeps both sides the same• E.g. x + 5 = 7, what does x equal?• We subtract 5 from both sides …• x + 5 – 5 = 7 – 5, thus x = 2• Alternatively, we can represent this as 5
moving to the other side of the equals sign …• x + 5 = 7 becomes x = 7 – 5 or x = 2• Thus, for addition or subtraction, when you
change sides you change signs
Multiplication and division• We can do a similar operation with
multiplication and division• E.g. 5x = 7, what does x equal?• We divide each side by 5 (to isolate x) …• 5x/5 = 7/5 … x = 7/5 … x = 1.4• Alternatively, we can represent this as 5
moving to the other side of the equals sign …• 5x = 7 becomes x = 7/5• Thus, for multiplication and division, when you
change sides you change position (top to bottom, bottom to top)
Multiplication and division• Let’s look at a more complicated example:
(x) (y)5
=7ab
• Isolate a in the equation:• Move b to the other side (from bottom to top)
5 b(x) (y)
=7a
(x)(y)(b)5
=7a
(x)(y)(b)(5)(7)
= a or
• Move 7 to the other side (from top to bottom)
(x)(y)(b)(35)
=a
Multiplication and division• This time, isolate b in the equation:
(x) (y)5
=7ab
• Move b to the other side (it must be on top) …(x) (y)
5=
7ab
• Move everything to the other side of b35axy
=b(b)(x)(y)5
=7a
Q - Rearrange the following equation to isolate each variable (you should have 6 equations)

Note: although kPa is used here, any unit for pressure will work, provided the same units are used throughout. The only unit that MUST be used is K for temperature.
