Question

Near Cozumel, Mexico, a scuba diver goes down 60 ft to look at the sea creatures. As she descends, the air pressure increases. Which gas law is this an example of? Group of answer choices Charles's Law Avogadro's Law Dalton's Law Ideal Gas Law Boyle's Law

Answer 1

Answer: Boyle's Law

Explanation:

Boyle's Law which is also called Mariotte's law was formulated by physicist Robert Boyle in 1662.

It posits that the pressure (p) of a given quantity of gas varies inversely with its volume (v) at constant temperature.

As the Scuba Diver went deeper, the volume of air dropped so the pressure increased.
