Physical Science Laws

Boyle’s Law Equation

P1 V1 = P2 V2

Charles’ Law Equation

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Two variables for Charles’ Law

Volume & Temperature

Two variables for Boyle’s Law

Pressure & Volume

Volume

The amount of space an object occupies.

Temperature

The amount of the kenetic energy of the particles.

Pressure

Caused by the particles colliding with each other & the walls of the/a container they are in.

What type of graph is Boyle’s Law?

A Inverse Variation

What type of graph is Charles’ Law?

A Directly Proportional

Boyle’s Law

For a fixed mass of gas at a constant temperature, pressure & volume are inversely proportional.

Charles’ Law

The volume of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature when pressure is held constant.
