...air. 1 trust, on consideration of the above facts, it will be conceded that the law which affirms that the volume of a gas varies inversely as the pressure to which the gas is submitted, is not " the law of Mariotte," but " the law of Boyle," (To be continued.) PHARMACY,... | |

...law. I must still adhere to the opinion expressed in a former paper, that the law which affirms that the volume of a gas varies inversely as the pressure to which the gas is submitted is rightly " the law of Boyle." Hooke, not only by his writings, but by inventing... | |

...the same, its density varies inversely as its volume. We know also, by Boyle and Mariotte's law, that the volume of a gas varies inversely as the pressure to which it is exposed. (See Pneumatics.) We are now, therefore, able to Fig. 4. determine the volume of a gas at... | |

...globe. The second is, of course, due to the compression of the air. Sibce (see Elasticity of вазсг) the volume of a gas varies inversely as the pressure to which it is subjected, it is easy, by reading the height of the mercury in the manometer tube, to find the pressure to which... | |

...liquefaction of the gas at the surface of the solid. Behaviour of Gases to Pressure— Boyle's Law.— The volume of a gas varies inversely as the pressure to which it is subjected. If V = volume at pressure, P and v = volume at pressure p, then — V: „: :p:P; hence, also the tension... | |

...one-half; if we treble the pressure the volume becomes only one-third. Hence was derived Boyle's law — The volume of a gas varies inversely as the pressure to which it is subjected when the temperature remains the same. It is plain that while the volume diminishes as the pressure... | |

...considered at present we will simply state the law of compressibility tha gases follow in general terms : the volume of a gas varies inversely as the pressure to which it is exposed ; consequently by doubling the pressure we halve the volume, by trebling it *< reduce it to... | |

...Boyle and Marriott, Law of. — The law of Boyle and Marriott, so named after its discoverers, is that the volume of a gas varies inversely as the pressure to which it is subjected. In engineering this law has its application in the expansive working of steam in a closed cylinder,... | |
