If the size of the container is increased atoms have further to travel between collisions with the wall so collisions are less frequent and thus the pressure exerted is reduced.
The pressure is reduced to one third of the original pressure. The pressure will stay the same you are only changing the volume
Pressure is due to the bombardment of molecules on the walls of the container. So when the volume is reduced then naturally the surface area will be reduced. Pressure is the force measured per unit area. Hence reducing volume would bring a decrease in its surface area and so the pressure increases. So volume and pressure are getting related.
Breathing, or pulmonary ventilation, is the process of exchanging air between the atmosphere and the lungs, and includes inspiration (inhalation), and expiration (exhalation). The movement of air into the lungs is dependent upon pressure gradients and the process is based on Boyle's law, which states that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to the size of its container. So in simple terms, if you have a certain volume of gas in a container, if that container were to get larger, the pressure inside would be reduced. Likewise, by decreasing the container size, the pressure increases. Using that example, the lungs are the container. By changing the size of the container, the pressure inside increases or decreases proportionally. During normal breathing, the diaphragm and external intercostal muscles contract to expand the lungs (our container), causing the pressure to decrease. When that pressure becomes lower than the atmospheric pressure, the air will move into the lungs (if you have ever siphoned gas its the same idea). As it moves into the lungs, it gets warmer, becomes moist, and expands. During expiration (exhalation), the diaphragm and intercostal muscles relax, causing the cavity size to reduce, which causes the pressure to increase. When that pressure becomes greater than the atmospheric pressure (outside), the air is forced out of the lungs.
Assuming it's a bag of gas at constant temperature, four times the volume by the relationship: P1V1 = P2V2
The pressure inside the container will increase. Pressure (P) is force(F) divided by the area(A) it hits on. If you decrease the area, you increase the pressure.
If the volume of a container of air is reduced by one half the partial pressure of the oxygen with in the container will be doubled. If the volume of a container of gas is reduced, the pressure inside the container will increase.
"For a fixed mass of ideal gas at fixed temperature, the product of pressure and volume is a constant." This means that if you have a container with an ideal gas in it, and the container is closed so that no gas can escape or get int (i.e. the mass of the gas contained is constant), when you raise the volume of the container by some ratio, the pressure will be reduced by the same ratio. So if you triple the volume, the pressure will be reduced to a third of its original value. And if you quadruple the pressure, the volume will go down by a factor of 4.
Yes. You can, for example, boil water at room temperature if you apply a vacuum pump to the container. However, if it was ONLY a sealed container (reduce the pressure and then take the vacuum pump away), the vapor increases the pressure and the whole thing comes to equilibrium and stops boiling.
it doublesIf the mass of the air remains constant, the PPO2 doubles.
initial volume = V1 final volume = V2 initial pressure = P1 final pressure = P2 = (1/2)P1 P1V1 = P2V2 P1V1 = (1/2)P1V2 P1 cancels; V1 = (1/2)V2 V2 = 2V2.
If the size of the container is increased atoms have further to travel between collisions with the wall so collisions are less frequent and thus the pressure exerted is reduced.
As the volume is decreased, the same number of molecules of air have a smaller space to move freely in. The number of collisions of molecules of air with the walls of the container per unit time increases. Since pressure is the force exerted over an area, the pressure increases.

If the lid was on the container all you would have to do is take the lid off so that the gas can escape. In other words, when the gas escapes, the amount of pressure is reduced (decreased). Certainly true if the gas pressure inside was originally higher than atmospheric pressure. Another way would be to cool it.
