Concept Introduction:
Different laws have been put forward to introduce properties of gases:
Boyle’s law:
At fixed temperature, the volume of a fixed amount of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure exerted by the gas.
Charles’s law: States that volume is directly proportional to temperature when the gas is held
at constant pressure and number of molecules.
