Micheal Floyd is learning to calculate using the equation for Boyle's Law.The problem states that the volume of a gas increased from 1.0 L to 3.3 L and the initial pressure was 1.5 atm while temperature was held constant.Michael calculated the problem and got the answer of 2.3 atm for the final pressure.Does this answer make sense?Why or why not?

Answer:
No
Explanation:
If volume increases, then pressure should decrease. For a fixed mass of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional. Or Boyle's law is a gas law, stating that the pressure and volume of a gas have an inverse relationship.
