The "Kelvin" scale, which uses the same size of degree as Celsius, but with a zero value at absolute zero. (on the Celsius scale, absolute zero is -273.15° C) There are no negative temperature values on the Kelvin scale.

∙ 12y agoNO! for all of the gas laws, including charles's law, temperature must be in Kelvin.
to convert celcius to kelvin, just add 273.
(C + 273 = K)

Is temperature expressed on the Celsius scale in calculations using Charles' Law?
No, you must always use the Kelvin scale when doing gas law problems.
Do the units for the variables in charles' law matter?
For Charles' Law(V1/T1=V2/T2) T1 and T2 must be in Kelvin temperature scale. This way their is no negatives or zero as 0 on the Kelvin scale would be no kinetic energy (absolute zero) which as never occurred as far as we are aware. The Kelvin temperature scale is Celcius minus 273.15 °. The volume however can be whatever you want as long as V1 and V2 are the same in the equation
What temperature scale must be used when working with the ideal gas equation?
The Kelvin scale is used.
What temperature scale must be used in all gas laws?
you need to use kelvin for all the gas laws.
What two variables must remain constant when testing Charles's law?
Well, pressure has to be kept constant and so does the mass of the gas with Charles's Law. Charles's Law--V1/T1=V2/T2--can be derived from the Combined Gas Law--V1xP1/T1=V2xP2/T2--by keeping the pressure constant which in turn cancels out the pressure in the Combined Gas Law leaving you with Charles's Law. Hope that helps you!

What should be the answer if asked at the scale of 1-10 how do i rate myself when it comes to customer service?
Pick a number between 1 and 10 - the question MUST be answered by YOU - we are not applying for a job, YOU are.
Does the temperature of boyle's law hot or cold?
The temperature scale must be absolute (like Kelvin), so it's always "hot" since no negative temps exist in the absolute scales.
What is ratio scale of measurement?
It is a scale where, given two measures X and kX, the second is k times as much as the first. This must apply for all real X and k.It may be easier to understand by considering a scale that is nota ratio scale. Commonly used examples are the temperature scale (in degrees C or F). A temperature of 40 degrees is not 4 times as hot as 10 degrees. Only the Kelvin scale meets that requirement.A ratio scale requires a zero that is meaningful.
What type of scale is the bar graph scale?

Whose law is As the temperature on a gas increases the volume of the gas must also increase to maintain constant pressure?
Charles's Law, or the law of volumes, was found in 1787 by Jacques Charles. It says that, for an ideal gas at constant pressure, the volume is directly proportional to its temperature.
