Which law is based on the graph that is shown below? A graph is shown with pressure on the horizontal axis and volume on the vertical axis. A curve starts high on the horizontal axis, curves toward the origin, and then starts to level out as it approaches the horizontal axis.

"Boyle's Law" is based on the graph that is shown below.

Explanation:

Boyle's law or Boyle - Mariotte law or Mariotte's law, is an experimental gas law that discusses how a gas's pressure tends to rise as the container volume start declining. This shows the relationship between pressure and volume for a fixed mass at a constant temperature, i. e., number of a gas molecules. This rule visualizes the actions of gas molecules in a confined space. This law can be understood from following equation:

p₁V₁ = p₂V₂

Above the product of the initial volume and pressure is equal to the product of the volume and pressure after a change.
