With the ideal gas law PV=nRT, if n (number of molecules, R(gas constant) and T (temperature) are fixed, then the product of P (pressure) and V (volume) is also constant.
So. Pressure and Volume are inversely related. If pressure goes up, volume must go down and if pressure goes down, volume must increase. The same goes with increasing or decreasing volume.

It is difficult to measure the volume of a gas because?
Pressure and temperature affect different gases differently giving varied conclusions to the exact volume of that gas.
A change in can bring about a change in air pressure?
if the dna sequence of a gene was tacttaccgagctagact then what kind of mutation has occured This has nothing to do with the question of air pressure. Either a change of temperature or a change of volume can affect air pressure, according to Boyle's Law of Gases. Increasing temperature=increased air pressure Decreased volume=increased air pressure The reverse is also true. Decreased temperature=decreased air pressure Increased volume=decreased air pressure
How does the pressure change when the total volume is increased to 20.0L?
If the total volume increases, then the pressure decreases.
At constant pressure how does the volume of 1 mole of an ideal gas vary?
The volume varies inversely with pressure.
What will happen to gas pressure when the volume is decreased?
When the temperature of a gas is increased at a constant pressure, its volume increases. When the temperature of a gas is devreased at constnt pressure, its volume decreases.
What are factors that affect gas pressure?
There are two factors that affect gas pressure. These factors are temperature and volume. Higher volume means lower pressure. Higher temperature means higher pressure.
How does the decreasing the gas volume affect the pressure of a gas?
The pressure increase.
How does compression affect pressure?
Compression reduces the volume without changing the amount of content it has. Pressure is inversely affected by volume. When volume increases, pressure decreases. Likewise, when volume decreases, pressure increases.
How does pressure exerted on a gas affect its volume?
The volume decreases (smaller,less)
What affect the volume of sound?
The amplitude of the sound pressure.
How will a pressure affect a gaseous system?
Increasing the pressure of a gas the volume decrease.
How does decreasing the volume affect the volume of gas?
If the temperature remains constant, decreasing the volume will increase the pressure.
How does reducing the volume of a gas affect its pressure if the temperature of a gas and the number of particles are constant?
At a constant temperature, the volume and the pressure are inversely proportional, that it, the greater the volume, the lesser the pressure on the gas, and viceversa.
How does increasing the temperature of a gas within a gas tank affect its volume?
It affects pressure, not volume.
What factors affects pressure?
There are two factors that affect gas pressure. These factors are temperature and volume. Higher volume means lower pressure. Higher temperature means higher pressure.
How does reducing the volume of a gas affect it's pressure if the temperature of the gas and the number of particles are constant?
At a constant temperature, the volume and the pressure are inversely proportional, that it, the greater the volume, the lesser the pressure on the gas, and viceversa.
What change will not affect the pressure in a container?
The volume of the container is increased.
