It allows for the calculation of moles

Explanation:

#PV=nRT -># the ideal gas law equation

Here #n# represents the number of moles of gas.

#P_1V_1 = P_2V_2 -># the equation for Boyle's Law

#(P_1V_1)/T_1 = (P_2 V_2)/T_2 -># the combined gas law equation

#P_1/T_1 = P_2/T_2 -># the equation for Gay Lussac's Law

None of the other gas laws include the number of moles of gas in their calculation
