  • Boyle's Law: Understanding Fixed Amount & Temperature
    The gas law that has the assumptions of a fixed amount and temperature of gas is Boyle's Law.

    Boyle's Law states that the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure, at constant temperature and mass. This means that as the pressure increases, the volume decreases, and vice versa.

    Mathematical Expression:

    ```

    P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

    ```

    where:

    * P₁ = Initial pressure

    * V₁ = Initial volume

    * P₂ = Final pressure

    * V₂ = Final volume

    Assumptions:

    * Fixed amount of gas: The number of gas molecules remains constant.

    * Constant temperature: The temperature of the gas does not change.

    Therefore, Boyle's Law focuses on the relationship between pressure and volume while keeping the amount and temperature of the gas constant.
