 Gay-Lussac's law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gay-Lussac's law was named after the French chemist Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac.
There are two laws that are attributed to Gay-Lussac which relate to the properties of gases, and are known by the same name.
The three gas laws in combination with Avogadro's Law can be generalized by the ideal gas law.

 Law of Charles and Gay-Lussac
The law was first published by Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac in 1802, but he referenced unpublished work by Jacques Charles from around 1787.
The Law of Charles and Gay-Lussac (frequently called simply Charles' Law) is one of the gas laws, and relates the volume and temperature of an ideal gas held at a constant pressure.
This reference has led to the law being attributed to Charles.

 Famous chemists
Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac (1778—1850) grew up during both the French and Chemical Revolutions.
With his fellow professor at the École Polytechnique, Louis Jacques Thénard, Gay-Lussac also participated in early electrochemical research, investigating the elements discovered by its means.
In 1808 Gay-Lussac announced what was probably his single greatest achievement: From his own and others' experiments he deduced that gases at constant temperature and pressure combine in very simple numerical proportions by volume, resulting in a product or products—if gases—also bear a simple proportion by volume to the volumes of the reactants.

 Vacuum History & Technology
This empirical relation was formulated first by Charles about 1787, and later by Joseph Gay-Lussac.
It is a special case of the general gas law, which states that the product of the absolute temperature (t) and a constant equals the product of the pressure (p) and the volume (v) or pv=kt, and can be derived from the kinetic theory of gasses under the assumption of a perfect (ideal) gas.
Charles' law is a statement that the volume occupied by a fixed amount of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature, under conditions of constant pressure.
