A student performed an experiment to measure pressure and volume of a gas at constant temperature and noted the following:
`{:("Pressure (mm of Hg)","Volume" ("cm"^3)),(100,80),(125,x),(200,40),(y,32):}`
Calculate the value of x and y. Which law was used in the calculation ? Draw a suitable graph.

To solve the problem, we will use Boyle's Law, which states that for a given mass of gas at constant temperature, the product of pressure (P) and volume (V) is a constant. This can be mathematically expressed as: \[ P_1 V_1 = P_2 V_2 \] ### Step 1: Calculate the value of x Given the first case: - \( P_1 = 100 \, \text{mm of Hg} \) ...
