Mo5-L4a: How are Boyle's Law and Charles Law Related?



        Charles law states that the volume of a gas
        increases with increasing temperature, if the
        pressure is constant.

        Charles Law

        The volume of a gas increases when the temperature
        increases at constant pressure.
