If the volume of a confined gas is doubled while the temperature remain constant, what change (if any) would be observed in the
dimulka [17.4K]

The gas will obey Boyles Law:

P1 V1 = P2 V2      where P1 and V1 are the original pressure and volume and P2 and V2 are the new  values.

If V2 = 2V1  (given) then:

P1 V1 = P2 *2 V1

P2 = P1 V1 / 2V1

P2 = P1 / 2

In other words the pressure is halved. (answer).
