Boyle's Law

Who is the proponent of Boyle's Law?

• Edwin Boyle

• Robert Boyle

• George Boyle

• Hanz Boyle

Boyle's law states that _________.

• When the temperature of a gas is constant, its volume is inversely proportional to its pressure.

• When the pressure of a gas is constant, its volume is directly proportional to its temperature.

• When the temperature of a gas is constant, its volume is directly proportional to its volume

• When the pressure of a gas is constant, its volume is inversely proportional to its temperature.

Boyle's law describes how two gas properties change when another property remains the same. What are these two changing properties?

• pressure and volume

• pressure and temperature

• temperature and volume

• pressure and number of moles

At constant pressure, the volume of a gas decreases as its temperature _____

• decreases

• increases

• stays the same
