Question

2.Look up Boyle’s law in a science textbook. How do the results of the experiment support or contradict Boyle’s law?

Answer 1

Boyle's law states that if temperature is held constant, pressure and volume are inversely proportional. An experiment may contradict this if volume and pressure are observed to be directly proportional.

Answer 2

Answer;

Based on the data the pressure of the gas decreases while the volume increases, according to the Boyle's Law.

The results of the experiment support Boyle's law because the two variables; the volume and the pressure are inversely proportional.

Explanation;

• Boyle’s Law explains the relationship between the pressure and volume of an ideal gas when the temperature and amount of gas inside a container remain constant.
• According to Boyle's Law as the volume of a gas increases, the pressure decreases, and as the volume of the gas decreases, the pressure of the gas  increases.
• The evidence of an experiment would support the law if the the volume and the pressure of a gas are inversely proportional,
