Whose law states the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the absolute pressure applied to it when the temperature is kept constant?

Respuesta :

Answer: Boyle's law.

Explanation:

Boyle's Law: This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

[tex]P\propto \frac{1}{V}[/tex]     (At constant temperature and number of moles)

[tex]P_1V_1=P_2V_2[/tex]  

where,

[tex]P_1[/tex] = initial pressure of gas

[tex]P_2[/tex] = final pressure of gas

[tex]V_1[/tex] = initial volume of gas  

[tex]V_2[/tex] = final volume of gas

Therefore, the law which states the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the absolute pressure applied to it when the temperature is kept constant is Boyle's law.
