Answer 1

Answer: (C)

Statement I is True, Statement II is False

Statement I : An increase in pressure in a closed container with an ideal gas leads to a decrease in volume.
Statement II : Pressure and volume are inversely proportional to each other.
$P\propto \frac{1}{V}$
$PV=$ constant
Statement I is True, Statement II is False.
