Step 1
This means that if the volume decreases, the pressure should increase, and vice versa. In this case, the volume of the gas is decreasing from 6.0 L to 2.0 L, which is a decrease by a factor of 3. Show more…

State whether the following statements are true or false. Doubling the pressure of a gas at constant temperature doubles the volume occupied by the gas.
A gas behaves as an ideal gas. At a temperature of 25.0°C and a pressure of 760.0 Torr, one mole of the gas occupies a volume of 22.414 Liters. True or False
