Boyle’s Law states that for a fixed mass of gas, the
pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to its
volume when the temperature is kept constant.
That is PV = constant or =
When the volume of a gas is reduced, the pressure of
the gas increases.

obeying Boyle’s Law
The oxygen cooled
under high pressure so
that the volume of the
oxygen can be reduced.
Due to the high
pressure in the tank,
the tank is made of
metals which are hard
and thick.
Relationship between
Celcius and Kelvin.
ӨoC = (Ө + 273) K
The temperature of
-273oC is the minimum
temperature which can
be achieved by the
gas.
This temperature is
known as absolute
zero.

Charles’ law states that for a fixed mass of gass, the
volume of the gas is directly proportional to its
absolute temperature when its pressure is kept
constant.
That is = constant or
The volume of a gas, at constant pressure, increases
with temperature.

According to Charles’ law,
the volume of a gas
increases when its
temperature is increased
at constant volume.
The balloon rises when
buoyant force on the

the weight of the balloon.
The pressures law states that for a fixed mass of
gass, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional
to its absolute temperature when its volume is kept
constant.
That is = constant or
The pressure of a gas increases with its
temperature.
When the car is moving,
the tyres will roll on the
surfaces of the road &
causes compression on
the tyres.
This will increases the
temperature in the
tyres & therefore
increases the air
pressure in the tyres.

in the tyres becomes
