The volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure on the gas. If the volume is 6 cubic centimeters when the pressure on the gas is 8 kilograms per square centimeter, then what is the volume when the pressure is 12 kilograms per square centimeter?
----------------
P*V = k
6*8 = k = 48
--------------
12V = 48
V = 4 cc
