Gay-Lussac's Law
Gay-Lussac's Law is when the pressure and temperature are related at a constant volume, which means that as the pressure of gas increases, so does the temperature!
As in Charles' Law, since you are dealing with temperature, you will have to make sure that your temperature in converted from Celsius to Kelvin and that your pressure units are the same.
Depending on your teacher, watch your sig figs!
Ex.The gas left in a used can is at a pressure of 125.3 kPa at 17 degree Celsius. If the can is thrown into fire, what will the pressure be inside the can at 1045 degree Celsius?
P1- 125.3 125.5 = X
T1- 273+17 = 290 Kelvin 290 = 1318 X = 570 kPa
P2 - ? 290x = 165145.4
T2 - 273+1045 = 1318 Kelvin 290 = 290
