    Answer

    320 cm³

    Explanation

    Firstly, find the constant of proportionality.

    V ∝ 1/p

    V = k/p Where V = volume, k = constant and p = pressure of the gas.

    1600 = k/4

    k = 1600 * 4

    = 6,400

    The equation will be,

    V = 6,400/p

    For p = 20 Kg/cm²,

    V = 6,400/20

    = 320 cm³
