1. A more correct name is Boyle-Mariotte law.
2. This law is a relation between pressure and volume at constant temperature. The equation is:
pV = k
where p is the pressure, V is the volume, k is a constant specific for the system.

What type of matter does Boyle's law tell us about?
Boyle's law describes the behavior of gasses, specifically the relationship between the pressure of a gas and its volume, such that in a closed system, as the pressure of a gas increases, its volume decreases.
What law is described by the equation P1v1P2V2?
Boyle's Law. See related link below.
Is Boyle's law true for all gases?
no boyle's law is not true for all element
What scientist is responsible for boyle's law?
Robert Boyle.
Which law says that the product of pressure and volume remains constant at a constant temperature?
This is the Boyle law (or Boyle-Mariotte law).
Is boyles law a direct or indirect relationship?
Boyle's Law is an indirect relationship. (Or an inverse)
What does Boyle law say about the relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas?
They have an inverse relationship.
What does Boyle's law express?
the relationship between pressure and volume - apex
The relationship between the pressure and volume of gases is given by what law?
Boyle's Ideal Gas Law:p1.V1 = p2.V2 = constant when temperature and number of moles are kept invariable.
What type of matter does Boyle's law tell us about?
Boyle's law describes the behavior of gasses, specifically the relationship between the pressure of a gas and its volume, such that in a closed system, as the pressure of a gas increases, its volume decreases.
What was Robert Boyle's contribution regarding the relationship between pressure and volume?
Simply named: Boyle's Law. See links below.
Definition of law in science?
In science, a law is a statement that describes a consistent and universal relationship observed in nature. Laws are based on repeated observations and experiments and are used to explain and predict natural phenomena. They are fundamental principles that help scientists understand the workings of the physical world.
Can you explain Boyle's law?
Boyle s Law states that volume of a given amount of gas held at a constant temperature varies inversely the with pressure. The relationship between pressure and volume of Boyle s Law is expressed in mathematical terms as P1V1=P2V2....
What is the name given to the relationship that shows that an increase in pressure leads to a decrease in the volume of a gas?
This relationship is described by the Ideal Gas Laws. The applicable law is Boyle's Law.
What law is described by the equation P1v1P2V2?
Boyle's Law. See related link below.
What is Boyles law well known for?
Boyle's Law is the inverse relationship between pressure and volume.
Who invented Boyle's Law?
In a series of experiments with his friend Richard Towneley, Henry Power discovered the relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas that later became known as Boyle's Law. This relationship was outlined in "Experimental Philosophy," but Robert Boyle, after discussing the theory with Towneley and reading a pre-publication manuscript of Experimental Philosophy, cited the hypothesis as the sole work of Richard Towneley. Boyle's mention of the theory preceded the publication of "Experimental Philosophy" by one year. That, combined with Boyle's promotion of the idea and his significant status as a nobleman scientist ensured the theory's moniker of "Boyle's Law." The French physicist Edme Mariotte discovered the same law independently of Boyle in 1676, but Boyle had already published it in 1662. Thus this law may, improperly, be referred to as Mariotte's or the Boyle-Mariotte law. In Summary: Henry Power Richard Towneley Robert Boyle -----------> Published his theory first, so it is named after him. Edme Mariotte
