Gay Lussacs Law
Imagine you're inflating a balloon on a chilly morning, and you notice it doesn't seem to expand as much as it did the previous warmer day. Just like how the balloon's pressure seems to drop with the cooler temperature, Gay-Lussac's Law tells us that the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature when the volume is constant. In this analogy, the balloon represents the gas, the air inside represents the molecules, and the cooler temperature decreases the energy of the molecules, leading to less pressure, just as Gay-Lussac's Law predicts for gases.

Gay Lussacs Law: The pressure of a gas is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature if the volume remains constant. Gay Lussac's law. In simple terms, Gay Lussac's law explains that if you heat a gas inside a sealed container, its pressure will increase.
