Charles's Law states:
* The volume of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature, when the pressure is held constant.
This means that as the temperature of a gas increases, its volume will also increase proportionally, and vice versa.
Mathematically, Charles's Law can be expressed as:
V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂
Where:
* V₁ = Initial volume
* T₁ = Initial temperature (in Kelvin)
* V₂ = Final volume
* T₂ = Final temperature (in Kelvin)
Important Note: Temperatures must always be expressed in Kelvin (K) when using Charles's Law.
