Gay-Lussac’s Law is a principle that shows how gas pressure and temperature are related. It states that as the temperature of a gas increases, the pressure of that gas also increases, as long as the volume stays the same.
The main variables involved are:
1. **Temperature** (how hot or cold something is, usually measured in degrees Celsius or Kelvin)
2. **Pressure** (how hard the gas pushes against the walls of its container, measured in units like atmospheres or pascals)
So, if you heat a gas, it will push harder (increase pressure) if the space it is in doesn’t change!
