The video demonstrates Boyle's Law, which relates pressure and volume. A balloon is placed in a bell jar, and air is pumped out to reduce pressure, causing the balloon to expand. When pressure is restored, the balloon returns to its original size, illustrating the inverse relationship between pressure and volume.
