Boyle's Law (Mariotte's Law)
Calculate the volume and pressure relationships of ideal gases at constant temperature using Boyle's Law (Mariotte's Law), where P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
Boyle's Law (Mariotte's Law)
Boyle's law states that for a perfect gas at constant mass and temperature, the volume varies inversely with absolute pressure:
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
Where:
- P = absolute pressure (Pa, psi, MPa, etc.)
- V = volume (m³, ft³, etc.)
- Subscript 1 = initial state
- Subscript 2 = final state
