(a) Avogadro's law:
V ∝ n (at constant T and P)
V = k4n
= constant (k4)
Boyle's law:
Mathematically, Boyle's law is written as,
(at constant T and n)
or, PV = k[1]
Where, P = Pressure, V = Volume, k1 = proportionality constant.
Suppose a gas has volume V1 at pressure P1. At constant temperature, if pressure extended to P2 and volume becomes V2, then according to Boyle's law,
P1V1 = P2V2 = constant.
or,
(see the figure 1)
Charle's law:
According to this law, "At constant pressure, the volume of gas increases or decreases by on increasing or decreasing each degree of temperature".
Mathematically, Charles law can be written as:
Suppose, the volume of gas is V0 at temperature 0ºC. If temperature is increased as tºC then volume becomes Vt, then according to Charles law,
or,
We can calculate the volume of given mass of gas at different temperatures.
(Follow the below figure 2).
For example:
