Q

The French scientist , showed at a constant pressure
, the volume occupied by the fixed quantity
• Of gas increased with increasing temperature.

A

Jacques Alexander Charles

19
Q

As the temperature increases, the
volume increases”

A

Charles Law

20
Q

a French chemist, demonstrated that at constant volume ,
the pressure exerted by a given amount of gas increased as the temperature is
increased.

A

Joseph Gay lussac

21
Q

states that at constant volume , the pressure exerted by a given
sample of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.
