Gas laws. The volume of a gas is inversely proportional to
\n" ); document.write( "the pressure on the gas.
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "V = k/P
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Find \"k\" using the following:
\n" ); document.write( "If the volume is 6 cubic centimeters
\n" ); document.write( "when the pressure on the gas is 8 kilograms per square
\n" ); document.write( "centimeter,
\n" ); document.write( "6 = k/8
\n" ); document.write( "k = 48
\n" ); document.write( "--
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "V = 48/P
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for V:
\n" ); document.write( " then what is the volume when the pressure is
\n" ); document.write( "12 kilograms per square centimeter?
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "V = 48/12
\n" ); document.write( "V = 4 cm^3
