using boyles law
P1V1=P2V2
p1=pmm hg
v1=vcm³
p2=p/2 mmhg
v2= ?
substite them
=>P*V=P/2*?
=pv=p?/2
=2pv=p?
divide both side by p
so ?=v2=2v cm³
understood??

With temperature being constant, the volume of a given gas is doubled when the pressure is halfed and vice versa...
Increase in volume leads to decresae in pressure in same proportion.... Inversely opposite

if pressure is reduced volume is increase but if pressure is increased volume is increase ❣️👽

using Boyles law
when the pressure decreases the volume increases so definitely it is B
