According to Boyle's Law, the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume when temperature and amount remain constant. Therefore, if a fixed sample of gas increases in volume, the pressure of the gas must decrease assuming temperature and amount of the gas remain constant. In other words, if the volume increases the pressure decreases; conversely, if the volume decreases the pressure increases proportionally.
Mathematically, Boyle's Law can be expressed as:
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
Where,
P₁ = Initial pressure of the gas
V₁ = Initial volume of the gas
P₂ = Final pressure of the gas
V₂ = Final volume of the gas
