Boyles Law (Volume-Pressure Relationship for a Gas)

Boyles Law: The volume (V) of a given mass of a gas depends on pressure (P) as well as temperature (T). Hence, in order to study the variation of volume with pressure, the temperature is required to be kept constant. During the studies of the variation of volume of a given mass of a gas with pressure at a constant temperature, it has been observed that when the pressure is increased, the volume decreases and vice versa. The dependence of volume on the pressure of gases can be demonstrated in the laboratory by a simple experiment described below. Experiment: Take … Continue reading Boyles Law (Volume-Pressure Relationship for a Gas)
