Question

If P, V, T represent pressure, volume and temperature of the gas, the correct representation of Boyle's law is.

• A. $V \propto \frac { 1 } { T }$ (at constant P)
• B. $P V = R T$
• C. $V \propto 1 / P$ (at constant T)
• D. $P V = n R T$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$V \propto 1 / P$ (at constant T)

Answer 2

Boyle's law is $V \propto \frac { 1 } { P }$ at constant T
