Chapter 6, Problem 6.124E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The correct gas law which states that the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure is to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Boyle’s law states that the ideal gas pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of that ideal gas at a constant temperature. The relation between pressure and volume can be represented as,

$P_1{V}_1=P_2{V}_2$

Where,

• $P_1$ is the initial pressure.

• $V_1$ is the initial volume.

• $P_2$ is the final pressure.

• $V_2$ is the final volume.
