vbj5sg | WHY does V chord want to resolve at the I? Can anyone explain WHY the V chord wants to resolve to the tonic? I’m sure there are reason and I know my fellow Reddit kings and queens can school me on this. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am a theory noob | One of my theory teachers liked to use the Harmonic/Overtone Series as part of the reason V wants to resolve to I.

It is possible to calculate absolute zero using several gas laws, namely the ideal gas law, PV = nRT. If you rearrange the ideal gas law as a linear equation as you would use on a graph, you can graph temperature against either volume or pressure.
