Solution

The gas law consist of a relationship between pressure, temperature, volume and amount of gas present. these are main gas laws:

  • Boyle's Law: Pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to volume of a gas.
  • Avogadro's Law: Volume of a gas is proportional to number of moles of a gas.
  • Charles' Law: Volume of a gas is proportional to the temperature of a gas.

Applications of gas laws in everyday life

  • Due to physical change, the behavior of the gas particles also changes. The gas laws are used to estimate the change in gas molecule.
  • By the gas law we can easily calculate the temperature, pressure, volume of any gas.
  • Theses gas laws also have practical application for measuring the tidal volume, respiratory gases.
  • They also used also used for weather prediction.

Thus, gas laws have wide applications in day to day life.
