If a gas is moved from a large container to a small container but its temperature and number of moles remain the same, what would happen to the pressure of the gas?

The ideal gas law is P = nRT/V. With the temperature and number of moles unchanged, pressure is inversely proportional to volume. Moving the gas into a smaller container decreases its volume, so the pressure increases; the correct choice is “It would increase.”
