Volume Volume Boyle's law (sometimes known as the Boyle Mariotte law) is one of the gas laws. Boyle's Law is named after the Irish natural philosopher Robert Boyle (1627-1691) who discovered it in 1662. Edme Mariotte (1620-1684) was a French physicist who discovered the same law independently of Boyle in 1676, so this law is often known as Mariotte's or Mariotte Boyle law. ...more on Wikipedia about "Boyle's law"
The combined gas law is a gas law which combines Charles's law, Boyle's law, and Gay-Lussac's law. In each of these laws, pressure, temperature, and volume, respectively, must remain constant for the law to be true. In the combined gas law, any of these properties can be found mathematically. ...more on Wikipedia about "Combined gas law"
A cube (or regular hexahedron) is a three-dimensional Platonic solid composed of six square faces, with three meeting at each vertex. The cube is a special kind of square prism, of rectangular parallelepiped and of 3-sided trapezohedron, and is dual to the octahedron. Thus it has octahedral symmetry. ...more on Wikipedia about "Cube"
The method of exhaustion is a way of finding the area or volume of a shape that is not easily defined in terms of traditional shapes. ...more on Wikipedia about "Method of exhaustion"
In chemistry, the molar volume of a substance is the ratio of the volume of a sample of that substance to the amount of substance (usually in mole) in the sample. It can be computed as the substance's atomic or molecular weight, divided by its density. The SI unit of molar volume is cubic metres per mole (m3mol-1). ...more on Wikipedia about "Molar volume"
Specific volume is the volume of a unit of mass of a material. It is equal to the inverse of density. Units of measurement of the specific volume include and . ...more on Wikipedia about "Specific volume"
The square-cube law is a principle, drawn from the mathematics of proportion, that is applied in engineering and biomechanics. It was first demonstrated in 1638 in Galileo's Two New Sciences. It states: ...more on Wikipedia about "Square-cube law"

Volume, also called capacity, is a quantification of how much space an object occupies. The international unit for volume is the cubic meter. ...more on Wikipedia about "Volume"
The volume of the Earth is, in cubic meters, around 1.0832×1021 m3, which is 1,083,200,000,000,000,000,000 m3 written in scientific notation. ...more on Wikipedia about "Volume of the Earth"
Volumetric heat capacity (VHC) describes the ability of a given volume of a substance to store heat while undergoing a given temperature change, but without undergoing a phase change. It is different from specific heat capacity in that the VHC depends on the volume of the material, while the specific heat is based on the mass of the material. If given a specific heat value of a substance, one can convert it to the VHC by multiplying the specific heat by the density of the substance. ...more on Wikipedia about "Volumetric heat capacity"
