I think it decreases because since dividing you will lose more than you gain

Answer:

As volume approaches to zero

the pressure approaches to infinity.

Explanation:


p=(8.31)/(v)

where p=pressure and v=volume

On seeing the above equation we see that as the volume approaches zero, pressure approaches to infinity.

Hence, as volume approaches to zero

the pressure approaches to infinity.
