Boyle's Law states that for a fixed mass of gas at constant temperature, the product of its pressure and volume is constant.
About Boyle's Law
- Expressed mathematically as 𝑃×𝑉=constant
- Describes the inverse relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas.
- Assumes ideal gas behaviour.
- Applicable in various real-world scenarios such as breathing and syringes.
Formula
𝑃×𝑉=constant
Where:
𝑃 is pressure
and
𝑉 is volume
