Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Charles's law states that at constant pressure, the volume of a gas sample is directly proportional to its Kelvin temperature, not Celsius temperature. Therefore, option A is incorrect. Additionally, the law states that the proportionality is direct, not inverse, so options C and D are also incorrect. Choice B is the correct answer because it accurately represents Charles's law.
