The force of a gas's outward push divided by the area of the walls of the container is the gas's:

• pressure

• voulume

• temperature

• surface tension

The greater the speed of gas particles in a container, the:

• greater the pressure
• fewer collisions there will be
• lower the temperature
• lower the pressure

Charles' Law States...

• As Pressure goes up volume goes down
• As Pressure goes up temperature goes up
• As Volume goes up temperature goes up 
• As Pressure goes down volume goes down
