Meaning
(physics) the density of an ideal gas at constant pressure varies inversely with the temperature.
Classification
Nouns denoting cognitive processes and contents.
Examples
- The lab instructor demonstrated Gay-Lussac's law by measuring the temperature and density of a gas at constant pressure.
- According to Gay-Lussac's law, as the temperature of an ideal gas increases, its density decreases proportionally.
- The scientist applied Gay-Lussac's law to predict the behavior of a gas under various temperature conditions.
- Gay-Lussac's law states that at constant pressure, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature in Kelvin.
- By analyzing the data, the students verified Gay-Lussac's law, which shows the inverse relationship between temperature and gas density.
