  1. Boyle's Law Megan Carfagno and Katie Pevehouse 5th period Chemistry POWER POINT!!!

  2. Mr. Boyle • He was an Irish natural philosopher. • the first to publish the relationship between pressure and volume. • The French physicist Edme Mariotte discovered the same law independently of Boyle, so this law may be referred to as Mariotte's or the Mariotte-Boyle law.

  3. Equation • The mathematical expression for Boyle's law is: PV=k • P= of pressure of the gas • V= volume of the gas • k is a constant, and has units of force times distance.

  4. ¿Why? • Boyle's law is commonly used to predict the result of introducing a change, in volume and pressure only, to the initial state of a fixed quantity of gas.

  5. ¿Why? • The "before" and "after" volumes and pressures of the fixed amount of gas, where the "before" and "after" temperatures are the same (heating or cooling will be required to meet this condition), are related by the equation: Pafter Vafter = Pbefore Vbefore
