also known as Gay-Lusaac’s Law

Question 16

Charles’ Law Equation

Answer 16

V1/T1 = V2/T2

constant pressure

Question 17

pressure - temperature (constant volume)

P proportional to T (V, constant)

Answer 17

Gay-Lusaac’s Law

Question 18

Gay Lusaac’s Law Equation

Answer 18

P1/T1=P2/T2

Question 19
