Charles' law

The volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature in kelvins, if pressure and amount of gas remain constant. Doubling the kelvin temperature of a gas at constant pressure will double its volume. If V1 and T1 are the initial volume and temperature, the final volume and temperature ratio V2/T2 = V1/T1 if pressure and moles of gas are unchanged.
