The correct answer is

1662

The correct answer is 1662.

These laws, combined with Avogadro's principle (relating volume to the amount of gas), eventually led to the formulation of the Ideal Gas Law: PV = nRT where: P is pressure V is volume n is the amount of gas (in moles) R is the ideal gas constant T is temperature (in Kelvin) Understanding Robert Boyle's 1662 work is fundamental to grasping the historical development and principles of these gas laws.
