Boyles Law P1V1 = P2V2
arsen [322]

Answer:

A. The balloons will increase to twice their original volume.

Explanation:

Boyle's law states that the pressure exerted on a gas is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by the gas at constant temperature. That is:

P ∝ 1/V

P = k/V

PV = k (constant)

P = pressure, V = volume.

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

Let the initial pressure of the balloon be P, i.e. P_1=P, initial volume be V, i.e. V_1=V. The pressure is then halved, i.e. P_2=\frac{P}{2}

P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\\\P*V=\frac{P}{2} *V_2\\\\V_2=\frac{2*P*V}{P}\\\\V_2=2V

Therefore the balloon volume will increase to twice their original volume.
