NO, Charles’s law DOES NOT hold when the gas becomes a liquid

Step-by-step explanation:

No, Charles's law would not apply to solids and liquids.

This is because liquids and solids have different properties and behaviors compared to gases. For example, both liquids and solids are only slightly compressible even under high pressure because of their particles that are very close together. Gases, also, occupy an indefinite volume (unless in a container), unlike solids and liquids.
