Probably you mean “dependent” and “independent.” In a typical gas experiment (Charles’s law) where you change the temperature and observe how the volume responds:
- Temperature of the gas = independent variable (you manipulate it).
- Volume = dependent variable (you measure how it changes).
Notes: plot volume on the y‑axis and temperature on the x‑axis, and use absolute temperature (kelvin) for linearity (V ∝ T at constant pressure and amount of gas). If instead you hold temperature and change volume, then volume would be the independent variable and temperature the dependent variable.
