Charles' Law tells us that temperature and volume vary directly with each other. This holds true at constant pressure. Temperature for all Charles' Law problems must be in Kelvin. As the temperature of a gas increases, it gains energy. This will result in an increase in contacting the sides of their containers they are going to want to expand. The mathematical formula that represents this relationship is V1/T1=V2/T2.

I found the picture to be a very good representation on how temperature and volume react with one another. The sparknotes problems also helped me prepare for our coming test.
