The pressure will increase, proportionally to the decrease in volume.
The Gas Law is PV=RT; then PdV + VdP = 0 if the Temperature stays constant.

What happens to the pressure of a confined gas at a constant temperature when the volume is reduced by half?
pressure decreases
If the volume of a container of air is reduced?
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.
The volume of a given mass of an ideal gas at constant pressure is?
directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature
If the volume of a confined gas is expanded to four times the original volume while its temperature remains constant what change will be observed?
The pressure is reduced four times.
If temperature of a gas tripled what happens to the volume?
Assuming a fixed amount of an ideal gas kept at constant temperature, then the volume is reduced to a third of its former amount when the pressure is tripled. P V = n R T = constant = k P1 V1 = k = P2 V2 P2 = 3 P1 3 P1 V2 = P1 V1 V2 V1 / 3

What happen to the pressure of a gas if the volume of the gas is tripled of a constant temperature?
The pressure is reduced to one third of the original pressure. The pressure will stay the same you are only changing the volume

Do not have definite?
Gases are highly compressible. So they don't have definite volume and pressure. As volume is reduced for a given mass pressure increases. Also as temperature changes then at constant volume pressure changes considerably. Same way for a constant pressure temperature change brings a change in the volume. Moreover gasses do not have a free surface.
The volume of a gas is reduced from 4 L to 0.5 L while the temperature is held constant. What does the pressure of the gas do?
increases by a factor of eight
The volume of a gas is reduced from 4 L to O5 L while the temperature is held constant The pressure of the gas?
increases by a factor of eight
What happens to the volume of a gas if its temperature is reduced by 25 percent?
Assuming pressure stays constant, the volume decreases by 25%. PV = nRT.

Why does dielectric constant decrease with an increase in temperature?
If the temperature increases, the conductivity will increase too which means the dielectric constant is reduced
