Laws of Perfect Gases
Laws of Perfect Gases : (1) Boyle's law. The volume of a given mass of gas at constant temperature is inversely proportional to pressure; (2) Charles's law. At constant pressure the volume of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature. These laws may be combined in the equation: (Pressure X Volume)/(Absolute temperature) = constant. (3) Joule's law. The internal energy of a given quantity of gas depends only on its temperature and is independent of its pressure and volume
