Question

The ideal gas equation is:
  1. A
    PV = nRT
    Correct
  2. B
    PV = RT
  3. C
    PV = nR
  4. D
    P/V = nRT

Correct answer

PV = nRT

Explanation

Ideal gas law: PV = nRT, where P = pressure, V = volume, n = moles, R = 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹, T = temperature in K. Assumes no intermolecular forces and point-mass particles.
