Question

What is the ideal gas law equation?

• A. \( P = \frac{nRT}{V} \)
• B. \( PV = nRT \)
• C. \( P = \frac{V}{nRT} \)
• D. \( P = \frac{nV}{RT} \)

Hint:

The ideal gas law is essential for understanding the relationship between pressure, volume, temperature, and the amount of gas. Always ensure you use the correct units for each variable.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The ideal gas law is a fundamental equation in thermodynamics that relates the pressure, volume, temperature, and amount of gas. The equation is given by: \[ PV = nRT \] Where: - \( P \) is the pressure, - \( V \) is the volume, - \( n \) is the number of moles of gas, - \( R \) is the ideal gas constant, - \( T \) is the temperature in Kelvin. This equation describes the behavior of ideal gases under various conditions of pressure, volume, and temperature. Thus, the correct equation is \( PV = nRT \).
