what is Boyles law and what is
Hello aspirant
Boyle's law is one of the laws in physics that concerns the behavior of gases. When the gas is under pressure it takes up less space. The higher the pressure , the smaller the volume. Boyle's law tells us about the relationship between the volume of a gas and it's pressure at a constant temperature.
The law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume.
Formula for Boyle's law
Pressure is inversely proportional to the volume and can be written as P α 1/ volume
p= pressure in N/m²
V = volume in dm³ ( litres)
k = constant
This is more usually written as
Pressure = Constant / Volume
PV = k
PV = PV
Boyle's law says that at constant temperature the volume of a given mass of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.
In other words , for a fixed or given amount of qn ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, P (pressure) is inversely proportional to the V (volume) of the gas .
Mathematically,
we can write boyle's law as follows.
P proportional to (1/V)
Or, P = k*(1/V) PV = k
Or, P 1 V 1 = P 2 V 2
