7. Study of Gas Laws

The study of gas laws encompasses different laws that describe the relationships among pressure, volume, and temperature of gases. Boyle's Law highlights the inverse relationship between pressure and volume at constant temperature. Charles's Law emphasizes the direct proportionality between volume and absolute temperature at constant pressure, leading to the Combined Gas Law that merges these principles. Application of these laws spans various practical scenarios including the functioning of balloons, industrial gas management, and atmospheric studies.
