Question

What are the properties of Boyle's law?

Answer 1

The pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of a gas.

Explanation:

Boyle's law states that, At a constant temperature and the number of moles of a gas, the pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of a gas.

In equation form, this is written as `PpropV` or `P_1V_1=P_2V_2`.

Here is a picture about the law:

Answer 2

Boyle's law states that the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure if the temperature and the number of particles are constant.

Explanation:

`P_1V_1 = P_2V_2`
`P_1` and `V_1` represent the pressure and volume of a gas before a change occurs.
`P_2` and `V_2` represent the pressure and volume of a gas after a change occurs.
