The meme pokes fun at the beauty standards in chemistry equations! On the left is the complex van der Waals equation of state (with all those pesky parameters and squared terms), while on the right is the elegantly simple ideal gas law (PV = nRT). Chemistry textbooks and professors often treat the ideal gas law as "less accurate" or "less attractive" than its complicated counterparts, but let's be honest—the simplicity of PV = nRT is the equivalent of supermodel-level hotness in equation form. Why use many variables when few variables do trick? Justice for the ideal gas law! It's the equation equivalent of that friend who rolls out of bed looking perfect while the rest of us need two hours of prep.
