Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
Which of the following equations represents the ideal gas law?
Step 1: Understand that the ideal gas law relates pressure, volume, temperature, and the amount of gas.
Step 2: Identify the variables in the ideal gas law: P for pressure, V for volume, n for the number of moles of gas, R for the ideal gas constant, and T for temperature.
Step 3: Recognize that the ideal gas law is expressed in the form of an equation.
Step 4: Write down the equation that includes all these variables: PV = nRT.
Step 5: Confirm that this equation is the correct representation of the ideal gas law.
