Boyles Law

Perfect gas and Boyles law

Boyle's law states that in a perfect gas where mass and temperature is kept constant, the volume of the gas will vary inversely with the absolute pressure.

Boyle's law can be expressed as

PV = constant  (1)

or

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂  (1b)

where

P = absolute pressure (Pa, psi...)

V = volume (m³, ft³...)
