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

P1V1=P2V2
V2=P1V1÷P2
V2=V1
