Answer 1

When the pressure of a gas decreases while holding all other variables constant (assuming an ideal gas), the volume \( V \) of the gas will increase. This relationship is described by Boyle's Law, which states that for a given amount of gas at constant temperature, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to its volume. Therefore, if pressure decreases, volume must increase.

So the correct response is:

V
