Pressure-Temperature Relation (Gay-Lussac’s law)

Science > Chemistry > States of Matter > Charle’s Law Mathematical relationships between volume, pressure, and temperature of a given mass of gas are referred to as Gas laws. In this article. we shall study Pressure-Temperature relation or Gay-Lussac’s law. Gay-Lussac’s Law: Statement: At constant volume the pressure of a given mass of a gas […]

Particle Model of Matter

Science > Chemistry > States of Matter > Introducion A matter is defined as anything that has mass, which occupies space and may be perceived by senses. There are three states of matter, viz. (a) solid, (b) liquid, and (c) gaseous states. Whatever may be the state of matter, it is composed of particles. In […]

Introduction to the Different States of Matter

Science > Chemistry > States of Matter > Introducion A matter is defined as anything that has mass, which occupies space and may be perceived by senses. There are three states of matter, viz. (a) solid, (b) liquid, and (c) gaseous states. Historical Perspective of States of Matter: Ancient Indian philosophers suggested that all the […]
