1 answer

When the pressure of a gas decreases, the volume (V) will increase, assuming all other variables are held constant. This relationship is described by Boyle's Law, which states that pressure and volume of a gas are inversely related when temperature and the number of moles of gas remain constant. Thus, the correct answer is:

• V
