Answer: the picture is work for number 1,2,4,5,7

Explanation: number 3: as the pressure in the volume decreases, the volume increases causing it to expand and eventually blow.

number 6: because the temperature and the amount of gas don’t change, these terms don’t appear in the equation. What Boyle’s law means is that the volume of a mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure. This linear relationship between pressure and volume means doubling the volume of a given mass of gas decreases its pressure by half.

hope this helps :))
