Which does Boyles law state?
|
Volume is proportional to pressure
|
|
Volume is inversely proportional to pressure
|
|
Volume is proportional to the square of the pressure
|
|
Volume is inversely proportional to the square of the pressure

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -This empirical relation, formulated by the physicist Robert Boyle in 1662, states that the pressure (p) of a given quantity of gas varies inversely with its volume (v) at constant temperature; i.e., in equation form, pv = k, a constant.
Detailed explanation-2: -Boyle’s law is a gas law that states that a gas’s pressure and volume are inversely proportional. When the temperature is kept constant, as volume increases, pressure falls and vice versa.
Detailed explanation-3: -This relationship between pressure and volume is known as Boyle’s law, after its discoverer, and can be stated as follows: At constant temperature, the volume of a fixed amount of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.
