gas laws
Gas laws describe how gases behave under different conditions of pressure, volume, and temperature. Key principles include Boyle's Law, which states that pressure increases as volume decreases (at constant temperature); Charles's Law, which reveals that volume increases with temperature (at constant pressure); and Avogadro's Law, which indicates that equal volumes of gases, at the same temperature and pressure, contain equal numbers of molecules. Understanding these relationships helps explain everyday phenomena, like how a tire inflates or how hot air balloons rise. These laws reflect the fundamental nature of gases and their interactions with their environment.
