  Boyle's  
 

The pressure of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to its volume at constant temperature.

\(P_1V_1=P_2V_2\)

 
     
 
  Pressure  
 

The pressure of a fixed mass of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature (in K) at constant volume.

\(\dfrac{P_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2}{T_2}\)

The volume of a constant mass of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperatur (in K) at constant pressure

\(\dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}\)
