In Boyle's law, the constant is the temperature of the gas. The variables are the pressure and volume of the gas. Boyle's law states that at a constant temperature, the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume.
Temperature & mass keep constant in Boyle's law. Volume and pressure are variable.
Boyles Law deals with conditions of constant temperature. Charles' Law deals with conditions of constant pressure. From the ideal gas law of PV = nRT, when temperature is constant (Boyles Law), this can be rearranged to P1V1 = P2V2 (assuming constant number of moles of gas). When pressure is constant, it can be rearranged to V1/T1 = V2/T2 (assuming constant number of moles of gas).
1. A more correct name is Boyle-Mariotte law, because Mariotte discovered this lawafter Boyle but indepedently.. 2. This law is a relation between pressure and volume at constant temperature. The equation is: pV = k where p is the pressure (variable), V is the volume (variable) , k is a constant specific for the system.
Boyle's law is used to measure the relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas at constant temperature. It states that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume when the temperature is kept constant.

The variable that Boyle's law holds constant is the temperature. Boyle's law states that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume, as long as the temperature remains constant.

Boyles Law
Well, pressure has to be kept constant and so does the mass of the gas with Charles's Law. Charles's Law--V1/T1=V2/T2--can be derived from the Combined Gas Law--V1xP1/T1=V2xP2/T2--by keeping the pressure constant which in turn cancels out the pressure in the Combined Gas Law leaving you with Charles's Law. Hope that helps you!
Boyle's Law is the inverse relationship between pressure and volume.
Boyles law "happens" when the temperature is held constant and the volume and pressure change.
The Boyle (or Boyle-Mariotte) law is: the pressure and the volume in a closed system, at a constant temperature, is a constant. They are so inversely proportional.
Boyle's law states that the absolute pressure and volume of a gas (if the temperature is kept constant within a closed system) is inversely proportional. If one doubles, the other is halved. So if we alter pressure, the volume changes. Therefore your variables are V and P. Volume and pressure
Boyles law is Pv= k and refers to any mass of gas under observation. It is often stated as p1V1 = p2V2 In words :- the product of pressure and volume remain the same (constant) as you change pressure or volume in your experiment. The constant k in the equation is not a universal constant (like R the universal gas constant) just a constant for that particular experiment.
Temperature and the amount of gas (moles) must be kept constant for Boyle's law to hold true. This means the pressure and volume of a gas are inversely proportional provided the temperature and amount of gas remain constant.
