Boyle's law states that gas volume is
A) directly proportional to pressure.
B) inversely proportional to pressure.
C) inversely proportional to temperature.
D) directly proportional to temperature.
E) both A and B

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is option 'b': inversely proportional to pressure.

Explanation:

According to Boyle's Law we have

For a gas at an constant temperature Pressure of the gas varies inversely with the volume occupied by the gas.

Mathematically we can state that

At constant temperature

[tex]Pressure\alpha \frac{1}{Volume}[/tex]

Thus from the given options, option 'b' is correct

Answer:

B). The temperature and volume of a gas are inversely proportional when pressure is constant.
