Answer: Avogadro's Law states that volume is directly proportional to the oles of the gas.

Explanation: Expression fro ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

This law has arrived from the combination of four laws:

1) Boyle's Law: This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

$P\propto (1)/(V)$ (At constant temperature and number of moles)

2) Charles' Law: This law states that volume is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure and number of moles.

$V\propto T$ (At constant pressure and number of moles)

3) Gay-Lussac's Law: This law states that pressure is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant volume and number of moles.

$P\propto T$ (At constant volume and number of moles)

4) Avogadro's Law: This law states that volume is directly proportional to the number of moles of the gas at constant pressure and temperature.

$V\propto n$ (At constant temperature and pressure)

Hence, the correct answer is Avogadro's Law.
