Charles's Law was established from the experimental fact that the volume of a gas reduces by a factor of 1/273 at a reduction of 1oC or 1o K (it must be noted that 0o C refers to 273.15 K) in temperature at constant mass and pressure. So , these two properties are inversely proportional and the product of the volume and temperature of a gas is constant at constant pressure and mass.
