Question 3 • Chemistry

Which equation below represents Charles’s law?

Answer
A
cap v sub 1 cap t sub 1 is equal to cap p sub 2 cap v sub 2
B
the fraction with numerator cap v sub 1 and denominator cap t sub 1 is equal to the fraction with numerator cap v sub 2 and denominator cap t sub 2
C
the fraction with numerator cap v sub 1 and denominator cap t sub 2 is equal to the fraction with numerator cap v sub 2 and denominator cap t sub 1
D
cap p sub 1 cap v sub 1 cap t sub 1 is equal to cap p sub 2 cap v sub 2 cap t sub 2

Explanation

Charles’s law states that, at constant pressure, a gas’s volume is directly proportional to its absolute temperature. For two states, this is written as V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂, which matches choice B. The other equations do not express this volume-to-temperature relationship.
