The ideal gas law allows you to predict how the properties of a gas change under certain circumstances, given an initial change. Correctly match below description of an initial change with the result the ideal gas law allows you to predict. Choose "Not enough information is given" whenever appropriate; there may be multiple circumstances that are appropriate.Hint Volume is increased. Pressure is decreased. Pressure is increased, while volume is decreased in inverse proportion. Pressure is increased, keeping volume constant. Pressure is halved and volume is tripled. Volume is decreased, keeping pressure constant.Volume increases.Pressure decreases.Temperature decreases.Not enough information is given.Temperature remains the same.Temperature increases.

The ideal gas law is PV=nRT, where P is pressure, V is volume, n is the number of moles of gas, R is the gas constant, and T is temperature. This law allows us to predict how changes in one variable will affect the others. Here are the matches:

1. Volume is increased - Pressure decreases. According to the ideal gas law, if the volume of a gas increases while the number of moles and temperature remain constant, the pressure will decrease.

2. Pressure is decreased - Volume increases. Similarly, if the pressure of a gas decreases while the number of moles and temperature remain constant, the volume will increase.

3. Pressure is increased, while volume is decreased in inverse proportion - Temperature remains the same. If the pressure increases and the volume decreases in such a way that their product (P*V) remains constant, then the temperature will also remain constant, assuming the number of moles doesn't change.

4. Pressure is increased, keeping volume constant - Temperature increases. If the pressure increases while the volume and number of moles remain constant, the temperature will increase.

5. Pressure is halved and volume is tripled - Temperature decreases. If the pressure is halved and the volume is tripled, the product P*V will decrease, which means the temperature will also decrease, assuming the number of moles doesn't change.

6. Volume is decreased, keeping pressure constant - Temperature decreases. If the volume decreases while the pressure and number of moles remain constant, the temperature will decrease.
