Boyle's Law

If the volume of a gas is doubled according to Boyle's Law, what happens to the pressure?

• Increases by a factor of 2

• Decreases by a factor of 2

• Remains the same

• Becomes zero

According to Boyle's Law, what is the relationship between pressure and volume when temperature is constant?

• Direct relationship

• Indirect (inverse) relationship

• No relationship

If the pressure of a gas is increased according to Boyle's Law, what happens to the volume?

• Increases

• Decreases

• Remains the same

• Cannot be determined

What is the equation that represents Boyle's Law?

• P1 + V1 = P2 + V2

• P1 - V1 = P2 - V2

• P1 / V1 = P2 / V2

• P1 x V1 = P2 x V2

If the pressure of a gas decreases according to Boyle's Law, what happens to the volume?

• Increases

• Decreases

• Remains the same

• Cannot be determined

What happens to the volume of a gas when its pressure is doubled, keeping the temperature constant, according to Boyle's Law?

• The volume doubles.

• The volume remains the same.

• The volume is halved.

• The volume quadruples.
