How will you verify Charle's law graphically? What is the practical importance of Charle's law?


Graphical verification: Charle’s law can be verified by the volume-temperature graph. At constant pressure, when a graph is plotted between volume (along Y-axis) and temperature on kelvin scale (along X-axis), a straight line passing through the origin is obtained. The plot obeys the linear equation V = m T (c.f., y = mx, equation of a line passing through the origin). Thus, we conclude that at constant pressure, the volume of a given mass of a gas is directly proportional to absolute temperature.



Practical importance: The use of hot air balloons in sports and for meteorological observations is an interesting application of Charle’s law. According to Charle’s law, gases expand on heating and hot air is less dense than cool air. This causes a hot air balloon to rise by displacing the cooler air of the atmosphere.

A student forgot to add the reaction mixture to the round bottomed flask at 27°C but instead he/she placed the flask on the flame. After a lapse of time, he realized his mistake, and using a pyrometer he found that the temperature of the flask was 477°C. What fraction of air would have been expelled out?
