Suppose you conducted a similar experiment using helium gas. Given that helium is much lighter than the gases used in this lab, what would you expect the relationship between the volume of helium and the pressure to be?

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

Suppose you conducted a similar experiment using helium gas. Given that helium is much lighter than the gases used in this lab, you would expect the relationship between the volume of helium and the pressure to be

A. periodic, because helium is lighter.

B. inversely proportional, just like propane and butane.

C. exponential, because helium is lighter.

D. directly proportional, just like propane and butane.

Answer : The correct option is, (B) inversely proportional, just like propane and butane.

Explanation :

Boyle's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

That means, there is a inverse relation between volume of pressure.

From the given options we conclude that the correct statement is, inversely proportional, just like propane and butane.

Hence, the relationship between the volume of helium and the pressure to be inversely proportional, just like propane and butane.

explanation:

two years ago, when picking flowers in the mountains back of yosemite valley, i found a book. it was blotted and storm-beaten; all of its outer pages were mealy and crumbly. the paper seemed to dissolve like the snow beneath which it had been buried, however; many of the inner pages were well preserved. and although all were more or less stained and torn, whole chapters were easily readable. this is the condition of the great open book of yosemite glaciers today; its granite pages have been torn and blurred by the same storms that wasted the castaway book.
