Boyle’s law
P∝1/V PV = k P = k/V

also be in other units,
e.g. m3 and dm3 for volume.
Boyle’s law states that, at a constant temperature, the volume of a fixed mass of a given gas
is inversely proportional to its pressure.

absolute zero. temperature is absolute zero.
Charles’ law states that the volume of a fixed mass of an ideal gas at constant pressure is directly
proportional to its absolute (kelvin) temperature.
