The study of behaviour of gases has led to the formulation of a few important generalisations called as Gas Laws..

Boyle's Law Robert Boyle proposed this law in the year 1662, giving the relationship between pressure and volume of given mass of a gas at constant temperature. This law states that volume (V) of a given mass of gas is inversely proport..

Gas Laws - Boyle's Law - The volume of a given mass of a dry gas is inversely proportional to its pressure, temperature remaining constant. Robert Boyle (1627 - 1691) discovered this law in 1662 and it was named after him. It can be restated as "The..

Jacques Alexander Cesar Charles, a French chemist, discovered in 1787, that at a constant pressure, with rise in temperature, carbon dioxide, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen, all expanded at constant rat..

Summary - Gases are different from solids and liquids. They have no definite shape or volume. When pressure is applied, a gas contracts and when pressure is released, the gas expands. Gases can move in all directions and completely diffuse with other gases to form a homogenous m..

Gas is one of the three states of matter - the other two being liquid and solid. A gas differs from a solid and a liquid in a number of ways. A gas fills entire space available to it and therefore it has no definite shape or volum..
