Question

Boyle’s law states that, as the pressure of a gas increases, the volume decreases True or False?

Answer 1

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Boyle's law was given by Robert Boyle in 1662.

Boyle's law was given for gases, this law states that the pressure (p) and volume (v) of a gas are inversely related to each other at constant temperature. Which means if the volume of the gas increases, then pressure decreases and vice versa, at constant temperature.

                          p ∝ 1/v .

Result: The given statement is true.
