What conclusions can you make about the relationship between the volume of a gas and its pressure?

Answer:

[tex]V \alpha \frac{1}{P}[/tex]

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law, the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at constant temperature.

This implies that, if the volume of a gas is halved, its pressure is doubled and vice versa.

This is mathematically represented as; [tex]V \alpha \frac{1}{P}[/tex] hence [tex]PV = K[/tex]. This is the mathematical statement of Boyle's law.
