The mathematical equation for Boyle's law is PV = k or you could say P1V1=P2V2.
P IS the pressure of the system.
V is the volume of the gas.
k is a constant value representative of the pressure and volume of the system.
**It just states that pressure and volume are inversely proportional when temperature is held constant (does not change). In other words, as volume increases pressure decreases and vice-versa (when temperature is constant).**
Also, an easy way to remember all of the laws (Boyle's, Charles', and Gay-Lussac's) is to remember one equation: The Ideal Gas Equation, which happens to be PV=nRT. P=pressure, V=volume, n=number of moles, R=constant (varies with certain units, for example, when using torrs or mm Hg it would equal 62.4), and T=temperature. You can make basic assumptions from this equation, for example, you know that when temperature is held constant that if pressure increases volume must decrease (which happens to be Boyle's Law).

Is airplane an example of boyles law?
yes im not sure why, but yea
Boyles law is used to measure what?
Boyle's law is used to measure the relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas at constant temperature. It states that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume when the temperature is kept constant.
What 2 things are comparedin boyles law?
In Boyle's Law, pressure and volume are compared. Specifically, the law states that at constant temperature, the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume.
What state of matter obey's Boyles law?
Liquid The Boyle law is for gases !!
How are Charles law and boyles law alike?
Boyles Law deals with conditions of constant temperature. Charles' Law deals with conditions of constant pressure. From the ideal gas law of PV = nRT, when temperature is constant (Boyles Law), this can be rearranged to P1V1 = P2V2 (assuming constant number of moles of gas). When pressure is constant, it can be rearranged to V1/T1 = V2/T2 (assuming constant number of moles of gas).
What are some real life applications of Boyle's law?
When you pop a balloon by overfilling it with air, you are applying Boyles Law. When a nurse fills a syringe before she gives you a shot, she is working with Boyles Law. Sport and commercial diving. Underwater salvage operations rely on Boyles Law to calculate weights from bottom to surface. When your ears pop on a plane as it rises from takeoff, that's Boyles Law in action.
How are boyles law and Charles law similar?
They are both gas laws?
What is Boyles law well known for?
Boyle's Law is the inverse relationship between pressure and volume.
Pressure and volume change at a constant temperature who's law is this?
Boyles Law
Is boyles law a direct or indirect relationship?
Boyle's Law is an indirect relationship. (Or an inverse)
How are Boyles law and Charles law alike?
Boyles Law deals with conditions of constant temperature. Charles' Law deals with conditions of constant pressure. From the ideal gas law of PV = nRT, when temperature is constant (Boyles Law), this can be rearranged to P1V1 = P2V2 (assuming constant number of moles of gas). When pressure is constant, it can be rearranged to V1/T1 = V2/T2 (assuming constant number of moles of gas).
How does the boyles law and Charles law relat to popcorn?
The kinetic and potential energy stored in the corn.
Is airplane an example of boyles law?
yes im not sure why, but yea
When does Boyle's law happen?
Boyles law "happens" when the temperature is held constant and the volume and pressure change.
What is the mathematical expression for Boyles Law?
so the stundent can learn more about math.
A graph of boyles law shows the relationship between?
a graph law graph shows the relationship between pressure and volume
What is the inverse of boyles law (P_1V_1=P_2V_2) how do you write it solving for P_2 (P_2=_______) Thanks!?
