Question

ventilation is governed by boyles law, which states that at a constant temperature,

the solubility of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume

the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to its volume.

the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume

the solubility of a gas is directly proportional to its volume

Explanation:

Boyle's Law is a fundamental gas law in physics. It specifically relates the pressure and volume of a gas at a constant temperature. The law is mathematically expressed as \(P_1V_1 = P_2V_2\) (where \(P\) is pressure and \(V\) is volume), which shows an inverse - proportional relationship (\(P\propto\frac{1}{V}\) when temperature is constant). The options about solubility are related to Henry's Law (not Boyle's). And the option stating pressure is directly proportional to volume is incorrect as per Boyle's Law.

Answer:

The pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume.
