HE UNCOVERED AN INVISIBLE FORCE THAT MAKES GASSES WORK Robert Boyle's experiments with air led him to an amazing discovery: the volume of a gas changes depending on the pressure applied, as long as the temperature stays the same. He proved that gases are not just empty space, but are made of tiny moving particles. Boyle's work built the foundations of modern chemistry, demonstrating how to carefully measure and test ideas. WHY READ THIS BOOK? * See the experiments that changed science * Learn how to measure gas pressure * Understand the scientific method * Be inspired to think like a true scientist BORN: 1627 * Experimented with air pumps * Discovered Boyle's Law. * Studied properties of gases * Pioneer of the scientific method * Famous book - "The Sceptical Chymist"
