Answer:

Independent variable is temperature and dependent variable is volume

Step-by-step explanation:

In his experiment a sample of a gas has been taken to find the effect of temperature on the volume of a gas at constant pressure.

To conduct this experiment we will change the temperature of the gas and see the change in its volume.

I other words, volume of the gas will depend on its temperature.

So the independent variable is temperature and dependent variable is volume.
