Gas Laws - Charles's Law

Charles's Law

Charles's Law, or the law of volumes, was found in 1678. It says that, for an ideal gas at constant pressure, the volume is directly proportional to the absolute temperature (in kelvin). Although this law remains constant, the formula for fusion strongly suggests that it is in fact, not an accurate measure at all.

The absolute temperature of the gas (in kelvin) and k2 (in m3·K−1) is the constant produced.

Famous quotes containing the words charles and/or law:

    As I was going by Charing Cross,
    I saw a black man upon a black horse;
    They told me it was King Charles the First—
    —Unknown. As I was going by Charing Cross (l. 1–3)

    All men, in the abstract, are just and good; what hinders them, in the particular, is, the momentary predominance of the finite and individual over the general truth. The condition of our incarnation in a private self, seems to be, a perpetual tendency to prefer the private law, to obey the private impulse, to the exclusion of the law of the universal being.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
