Accomplishments-Boyle

=Created Boyle's Law!! =

 Definition-- Describes the inversely proportional relationship between the absolute pressure and volume of gas if the temperature is kept constant within a closed system.
 * Boyle confirmed the discovery of amateur scientists Richard Towneley and Henry Power
 * Based his law on the results of his experiments in which he used air to create

 Boyle's Law: pV=K
 * p: the pressure of the system
 * V: the volume of the gas
 * K: constant value that represents the pressure and volume of the system

= = =The Sceptical Chemist (1661)=
 * Boyle's most famous book
 * Many of these ideas were based off Decartes
 * Argued against Aristotle's view of the elements (Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire)
 * Believed particles moved freely in fluids and less freely in solids
 * The world is a complex system governed by mathematical law
