Question

question given the equation pv = nrt, rearrange the equation to solve for n. answer n = pv/rt n = pvrt n = pv - rt n = pv + rt n = rt/pv i dont know yet

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the equation

We start with the ideal gas law equation \( PV = nRT \).

Step2: Isolate \( n \)

To solve for \( n \), we need to divide both sides of the equation by \( RT \) (assuming \( RT
eq0 \)). So, we perform the operation:
\[
\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{nRT}{RT}
\]

Step3: Simplify the right - hand side

Since \( \frac{RT}{RT} = 1 \) (for \( RT
eq0 \)), the right - hand side simplifies to \( n \). So we have \( n=\frac{PV}{RT} \).

Answer:

A. \( n = PV/RT \)
