If pressure and volume of a gas are variable while temperature remains constant, this belongs to
Correct answer: B. Boyle's law
- A. Charles's law
- B. Boyle's law
- C. Avogadro's law
- D. Pascal's law
Explanation
Boyle's law is a gas law, stating that the pressure and volume of a gas have an inverse relationship. If volume increases, then pressure decreases and vice versa, when the temperature is held constant.

About Gases
Gas behaviour is explained through the kinetic molecular theory and the relationships among pressure, volume and temperature. Work includes STP, Boyle's and Charles's laws, absolute zero, the ideal gas equation, and the distinction between ideal and real gases, especially the effects of intermolecular forces and molecular volume.
