Boyle's law gives the relationship between pressure and volume of gases.
it states that for a fixed amount of gas at constant temperature, pressure of gas is inversely proportional to volume.
PV = k
where P - pressure , V - volume and k - constant
P1V1 = P2V2
where parameters for the first instance are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side of the equation
substituting this equation
P x 0.5650 L = 715.1 bar x 1.204 L
P = 1 524 bar
