The product of pressure and volume remains constant when temperature and quantity of gas is:

Correct answer: A. Kept constant

  • A. Kept constant
  • B. Zero
  • C. Variable
  • D. None of the above

Explanation

Its is kept constant. Imagine you have a balloon filled with gas. If you keep the temperature and the amount of gas inside the balloon constant, the product of the pressure and volume of the gas will always stay the same. It's like a magical balancing act between pressure and volume.

About Boyle's Law

Boyle's law states that the pressure of a fixed mass of gas varies inversely with its volume when temperature remains constant. Problems use the relationship P₁V₁ = P₂V₂, pressure-volume graphs and volume changes, with constant temperature distinguishing it from Charles's law.
