A researcher investigates the relationship between the temperature and pressure of a fixed volume of argon gas in a sealed rigid cylinder. Their results are shown in Table 1.

Table 1

Temperature (TTT) / K\text{K}KPressure (ppp) / kPa\text{kPa}kPap/Tp / Tp/T / kPa⋅K−1\text{kPa}\cdot\text{K}^{-1}kPa⋅K−1

3001340.447
3201450.453
3401520.447
3601630.453

Explain whether the values in the column headed 'p/Tp / Tp/T' fit the equation:

p1T1=p2T2 \frac{p_1}{T_1} = \frac{p_2}{T_2} T1​p1​​=T2​p2​​
