Question

The observation that the pressure of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to the volume it occupies if the pressure is kept constant is a statement of______.

Answer 1

• This statement comes under Boyle's law which states that-
• “Temperature remaining constant, the volume of a given mass of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.”
• If T= constant
• $\mathrm{V}\mathrm{is}\mathrm{inversaly}\mathrm{propotional}\mathrm{to}\frac{1}{\mathrm{P}}$
• which means,
• $\mathrm{PV}=\mathrm{K}$
• The observation that the pressure of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to the volume it occupies if the pressure is kept constant is a statement of_Boyle's law.
