A "law" is a readily observable fact about something. It is something that is obvious and undeniable. Allow me to clear up a common misconception right now, laws are not a "higher" stage than theory, and no theory ever becomes a law. Laws are simple and obvious statements about a phenomenon that never require a second guess, or an experiment, to verify them (for example, there is a law that states that there exists an apparent attraction between all objects having positive mass...it's called the law of Gravity, and it's not just undeniable, but it's readily observable and demonstrable (by virtue of the simple fact that you are not floating about, but are anchored to the Earth)).
Now, a "theory" is an advanced hypothesis. An hypothesis is a plausible, testable explanation of how a phenomenon works and/or why it works that way. Once an hypothesis has been tested repeatedly, under a variety of conditions, such that it is sufficient to convince a majority that the hypothesis is probably right ("right", in this context, means that it can be used successfully to make predictions as to how the phenomenon will behave if one conducts the same experiment(s) again), it can graduate to "theory", but it is still tested just as vigorously.
A theory can be "strong" or "weak", depending on the amount of evidence there is that agrees with it, the amount of accurate predictions it's made, and the amount of experiments that have been conducted and have concluded in its favor. However, it doesn't matter how strong a theory gets (you might think of such as examples as the theory of Evolution, Relativity, Quantum Mechanics, &c), it never becomes a law. That would run contrary to the definition of "law" as readily observable and nor requiring experimenation for verification. Also, a theory may always be disproven, but it must then be replaced with a better theory.
Ideal gas law is the law which states that for a given quantity of gas, the product of the volume V and pressure P is proportional to the absolute temperature T, or PV = kT, where k is a constant. And, kinetic theory of gas is the theory based on a simple description of a gas, from which many properties of gases can be derived.
Well the difference is, TRIANGLE IS THE ANSWER TO EVERYTHING!
A law is an accepted truth, whether or not it's been proved. A theory is either an unproven, unprovable or globally unaccepted proposal that explains a situation.
KMT talks about the properties of real gases while ideal gas laws discuss only the ideal gases..
A scientific theory is more elaborated than a simple hypothesis and generally is validated by experiments.
a law is something that is true and a theory is an opinion or thought that can be proven wrong.
Mostly semantics. A "law" is a theory that can be expressed mathematically.

law is based on fact theory is a concept/idea
command of sovereign sanctioned by punishments is law by imperative theory and law as legal science of norms is by pure theory of law.
Mostly semantics. A "law" is a theory that can be expressed mathematically.
A natural law is an empirical observation held to be true. A theory explains why the law holds true.
A theory is an explanation of behavior, while a law is a summary of observed, measurable behavior.
A scientific law states a pattern found in nature and a scientific theory explains that pattern
Principles relate to factors Theory relates to principles Laws are rules
A scientific law is a statement of a pattern that has been observed. A theory is an explanation that has stood up to repeated test.
it is that animals arent involved
