of pressure with respect to volume. Since the volume is inversely proportional to the density, it follows that
:where is the initial density and denotes the derivative of pressure with respect to density. The inverse of the bulk modulus gives a substance's compressibility. Generally, the bulk modulus is defined at constant temperature as the isothermal bulk modulus, but can also be defined at constant entropy
