Solution
The correct option is A Temperature and number of moles of a gas (A): Temperature and number of moles of gas. The absolute pressure exerted by a given mass of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to the volume it occupies if the temperature and amount of gas remain unchanged within a closed system Mathematically, Boyle's law can be stated as: Pα1V , at constant temperature and number of moles of gas.
