Boyle's Law in chemistry lab

In this lab the students discovered that pressure and volume are inversely related; as pressure increases, volume decreases.  This lab also had students working with numbers of greater magnitude than they were used to working with.  The graph of volume vs pressure is a hyperbola and 1/V vs pressure turns out to be a straight line.
