<h1>Ideal Gas Law</h1>
<ul>
<li>An approximation to help us model and predict the behaviour of gases</li>
<li>Refers to hypothetical gas composed of molecules that follow a few rules:
<ol>
<li>Ideal gas molecules do not attract or repel each other</li>
<li>Ideal gas molecules themselves take up no volume</li>
</ol>
</li>
</ul>
