Look at PV = nRT. Solve for P
P = nRT/V. Note that T and R are constants. If V is also constant then P = n*constant. Therefore, if n goes up P goes up.
Do the same with PV = nRT and solve for V = nRT/p. Then with R,T, and p constant, what can you say about V and n.
When the number of gas particles in a container with constant volume decreases, does the pressure of the gas increases?
If the number of gas particles at constant pressure increases, will the volume of the gas decrease?
What is the relationship between gas particles and volume? Are they proportional or vary inversely?
