Boyle's law
From SklogWiki
Boyle's law states that \[PV\vert_T=k\] where \(P\) is the pressure, \(V\) is the volume and \(k\) is a constant. This holds true for an ideal gas.
[edit] History
Boyle's law is attributed to both Robert Boyle and to Edme Mariotte. However, it seems that it was originally
proposed by Henry Power in 1661
