II onlyAccording to Boyle's Law, for a given amount of gas at constant temperature (T), the pressure (P) of the gas is inversely proportional to its volume (V), which is represented as P ∝ 1/V or PV = constant. This is the only pair among the options given where the variables are inversely proportional to each other under the condition that all other factors remain constant.
