Pressure is inversely proportional to density.

Answer 1

Answer:

Pressure is directly proportional to the density of a substance.

Explanation:

Pressure is a measure of force per unit area. Density is defined as mass per unit volume i.e the ratio of mass of a substance to it's volume.

Thus, it means that an increase in pressure results in an increase in density and vice-versa.
