=Charles' Law=

Charles' Law says that at constant pressure, the volume of a given mass of an ideal gas increases or decreases by the same factor as its temperature (in Kelvin) increases or decreases. It was written by Jacques Charles in 1878. The equation for this law is:

V1/T1 = V2/T2

V1: 10 T1: 5 V2: 20 To solve this, you must isolate T2. First, you solve the left side, 10 divided by 5 is 2. Now you have 2 = 20/T2. Next you multiply both sides by 20, 2x20 = 40 and 20/T2 becomes just T2. T2 = 40.
