Question

    Boyle's law is a relationship between –

    A Pressure and volume Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Volume and temperature Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Volume and density Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Pressure and temperature Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Boyle's law states that the absolutepressureandvolumeofagivenmassof confined gas are inversely proportional, if the temperature remains unchanged within a closed system. Thus, it states that the product of pressure and volume is a constant for a given mass of confinedhasaslongas thetemperature is constant. The law was named after chemist and physicist Robert Boyle, who published the original law in 1662.
