  • Boyle's law is named after chemist and physicist Robert Boyle who published the original law in 1662. He determined the quantitative relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas. He used a j-shaped tube partially filled with mercury. Inversely proportional, P1V1=P2V2   
  • Charles law named after Jacques Charles, a french mathematician and physicist who was remembered for his pioneering work with gases and hydrogen balloon flights. It is directly proportional and this law states the relationship between volume and temperature. V1T2=V2T1
  • Gay-lussac's law by Joseph Louis Gay-lussac, the person who is created with the determination of the temperature and pressure relationship in gases at constant volume. It is directly proportional, P1T2=P2T1
  • Ideal gas law also known as the general gas law is an equation of the state of a hypothetical ideal gas that was discovered by Benoit Paul Émilé Clapeyron a physicist and engineer. For a gas to be 'ideal', the gas particles should have negligible volume, do not have intermolecular forces, and the gas particles move randomly. PV=nRT when R=0.0821 L•atm/mol•k
