The temperature of a gas remains constant while the volume of a given amount of gas is tripled. What will happen to the pressure reading compared to the initial pressure?

Boyle's law states that the pressure of a gas and the volume it occupies are inversely proportional. Therefore, if the pressure increases by a factor of 3 (tripled), then at constant temperature, we expect the volume to decrease by a factor of 13 ("cut in third").

odds are decent that your handwriting right now looks a little bit different than it did five years ago, and will look different again in five more. when i look back through my notebooks from middle school to now, i see a long, slow progression from meticulous and teeny letters to bigger, sloppier ones, plus a few side detours: sometime in high school, for example, i decided those loopy cursive lowercase f’s were just the coolest, adopting them as the lone rep for cursive in my otherwise all-print handwriting.
