This applet displays the PV curves when an ideal gas undergoes isothermal and adiabatic changes.
The equations behind the lines are PV=nRT where nR is taken to be 0.01 and PV^1.66 for the adiabatic changes.
Change the volume to expand and compress the gas adiabatically and isothermally at different temperatures.
Use a set of values to show that there is 1.203 x 10^-3 moles of a monatomic gas.
