Temperature Changes & MatterTemperature Changes & Matter

Solids & Liquids expand and contract as Solids & Liquids expand and contract as temperature changes. temperature changes. – Change is usually very smallChange is usually very small

Gases show large volume changes with Gases show large volume changes with temperature changestemperature changes

Jacques CharlesJacques Charles

Balloonist

1787 did experiments showing how volume of gases depends on temperature

How do hot air balloons work?How do hot air balloons work?

Relationship between V and TRelationship between V and TPressure & amount are constant

At high temperature, the gas particles move faster and collide with the walls more often

Pressure is constant, so volume has to increase

Charles extrapolated the graph to 0 volume.At 0 mL, the X-intercept is -273 C

Hints of Kelvin scaleHints of Kelvin scale

Charles extrapolated his data to see the Charles extrapolated his data to see the temperature at which the volume was 0temperature at which the volume was 0

This was the first indication that the This was the first indication that the temperature -273 temperature -273 C might have a C might have a fundamental meaningfundamental meaning

Why did Charles have to extrapolate his lines Why did Charles have to extrapolate his lines in this temperature range instead of taking in this temperature range instead of taking data?data?

Step 1:Step 1: Convert T Convert T11 and T and T22 to Kelvin scale. to Kelvin scale.

Step 2:Step 2: Rearrange equation: Rearrange equation:

VV11 = = VV22 becomes becomes VV11TT22 = V = V22

The low temperature region is always extrapolated. Why?
