Boyle's law states that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume, when the temperature and amount of gas are held constant. This means that as the volume of a gas decreases, the pressure of the gas increases, and vice versa. Mathematically, Boyle's law can be expressed as P1V1 = P2V2, where P1 and V1 are the initial pressure and volume, and P2 and V2 are the final pressure and volume.

Boyle's Law:
At constant temperature, the volume of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.
Mathematically:
``` P₁V₁ = P₂V₂ ```
where:
- P₁ and P₂ are the initial and final pressures of the gas - V₁ and V₂ are the initial and final volumes of the gas
