With molar quantity and temperature held constant,by what factor does the pressure of an ideal gas change when the volume is five times bigger?
A) 0.2
B) 1.0
C) 5.0
D) 25.0

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to Boyle's Law, for a given amount of gas at constant temperature, the pressure is inversely proportional to the volume. If the volume increases by a factor of 5, the pressure decreases by a factor of 1/5, which is 0.2.
