Graphical representation
$x$ and $y$ coordinates
A

1
$p V\, v s\, V$
B

2
$p \,v s \,V$
C

3
$p \,v s \frac{1}{V}$
| Graphical representation | $x$ and $y$ coordinates | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| A | ![]() |
1 | $p V\, v s\, V$ |
| B | ![]() |
2 | $p \,v s \,V$ |

Solution:
The correct match is given below.
$A \rightarrow 2, B \rightarrow 3, C \rightarrow 1$
According to Boyle's Law,
$p \propto \frac{1}{V} $ [ at constant $T$]
