Pressure and volume are inversely related. when the pressure on a gas is doubled, what happens to the volume

Volume decreases to half of original volume

Explanation:

Boyle's Law: This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

    (At constant temperature and number of moles)

where,

= initial pressure of gas = p

= final pressure of gas = 2p

= initial volume of gas = v

= final volume of gas = ?

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get the final pressure of gas.

Therefore, the final volume of the gas will become half of initial volume.

dynamic equilibrium is the answer.
