Which of the following statements correctly describes the relationship between variables in Charles's Law?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking to identify the correct relationship between variables described by Charles's Law. Charles's Law describes how gases tend to expand when heated. The question requires understanding the relationship between volume and temperature when pressure and the number of moles are kept constant.
Answer
Charles's Law: Volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature in Kelvin at constant pressure.
Charles's Law states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature (in Kelvin) when the pressure and amount of gas are kept constant.
Answer for screen readers
Charles's Law states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature (in Kelvin) when the pressure and amount of gas are kept constant.
More Information
Charles's Law is a specific case of the ideal gas law. It helps predict how a gas will expand or contract with changes in temperature, assuming constant pressure.
Tips
A common mistake is forgetting that the temperature must be in Kelvin for Charles's Law to apply correctly.
