This document contains worked examples of gas law problems. The problems demonstrate using the gas laws to calculate new volumes or temperatures given initial conditions and a change in pressure, volume, or temperature. The key gas law used is PV=nRT, where temperature is kept constant. The problems are solved by setting up the gas law equation with the known parameters and solving for the unknown value.
