The gas law relating volume and pressure at constant temperature is:
ABoyle's law
BCharles's law
CAvogadro's law
DDalton's law
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Boyle's law
1. Each named gas law holds two quantities fixed and relates the other two.
2. Volume and pressure at constant temperature is Boyle's law.
3. The illustration used is partially filling an airtight syringe with air at a constant 25 degrees Celsius.
4. Charles's law instead relates volume and temperature.
