Boyle's Law
Storyboard Text
- Hey bro, I got a fever yesterday and was unable to attend our chemistry class on Boyle's Law. Is it possible for you to explain the lesson to me?
- Yes, sure.
- Physicist, scientist, and inventor Robert Boyle was the first to develop Boyle's Law. Boyle is credited with discovering Boyle's Law, which states that the volume of a gas reduces as the pressure increases, and vice versa.
- For gases at a constant temperature, Robert Boyle discovered that volume and pressure are directly related. When mass and temperature are held constant, Boyle's Law also shows a connection between volume and pressure.
- I'd like to know what the formula for Boyle's law is.
- Oh that's easy. This law is expressed as P1(V1) = P2(V2) by Boyle's formula. Where P1 is the initial pressure, V1 is the initial volume, P2 is the final pressure, and V2 is the final volume.
- Can you give an example of real-life application of it?
- When you inflate your bike tires, you may see a real application of Boyle's Law in action. Tires are filled with compressed gas molecules when they are pumped full of air. This raises the gas pressure, causing it to push against the tire's sidewalls.
- Thanks a lot, Bro. It all makes sense to me. Finally, I'm ready to take our test.
- No worries, I'm glad you understood. Best of luck for our exam. Break a leg!
