Charles' Law: This law states that volume is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure and number of moles.
 
     (At constant pressure and number of moles)
 
 
 
where,
 
 = initial volume of gas  = 100 ml
 
 = final volume of gas  = 200 ml
 
 = initial temperature of gas  =
 
 = final temperature of gas  = ?
 
 
 
 
 
Therefore, the the sample will have a volume of 200 ml at 186.5 Kelvin.
