Boyle’s law helps predict the behavior of what state of matter?
Liquids
Solids
Gases
Plasmas
Answer
Boyle's law states that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume when the temperature and the amount of gas remain constant. Therefore, if the volume of a gas decreases, its pressure will increase, and vice versa. This law helps predict the behavior of gases in various situations, such as when a balloon is inflated or when a scuba diver descends underwater.
