Respuesta :
The answer would be B. The temperature would be reduced by half.
When volume is constant, as pressure increases temperature also increases and the ratio of p/t is constant.

According to Boyle's law, the temperature would double of a gas if the pressure were halved as the number of moles and the volume were held constant. Hence, option A is correct.
What is Boyle's law?
Boyle's law states that at constant temperature, the pressure exerted by a gas is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by it.
If temperature is held constant, the equation is reduced to Boyle's law. Therefore, if you decrease the pressure (P↓) of a fixed amount of gas, its volume (v ↑) will increase.
(P↓) → (v ↑)
P∝ [tex]\frac{1}{V}[/tex]
However, if you were to maintain a constant volume while decreasing pressure, the temperature would also have to decrease.
Thus, according to Boyle's law, the temperature would double of a gas if the pressure were halved as the number of moles and the volume were held constant.
Hence, option A is correct.
