Boyle's Law: A closer look.

Boyle's law
Blogger no. 3:

Boyle's law shows that, at constant temperature, the product of an ideal gas's pressure and volume is always constant. It was published in 1662. It can be determined experimentally using a pressure gauge and a variable volume container. It can also be found through the use of logic; if a container, with a fixed number of molecules inside, is reduced in volume, more molecules will hit the sides of the container per unit time, causing a greater pressure.
                                                   
As a mathematical equation, Boyle's law is:
where k is the constant of proportionality and its value is 1
Where P is the pressure (Pa), V the volume (m3) of a gas, and k1 (measured in joules) is the constant from this equation.






Also remember that :

Graphically, we can show Boyle's Law by the graph below:


we the bloggers hope that our contribution is helpful for you to understand Boyle's Law more  easily.
