$For an ideal gas, the equation of state is given by which of the following?$

A. $P V = n R T$
B. $P V = constant$
C. $\frac{P}{V} = constant$
D. $P V^{2} = n R T$

Show correct answer & step-by-step solution

Correct answer: A — $P V = n R T$

Solution

The ideal gas law is the equation of state of a hypothetical ideal gas. It is expressed as P V = n R T, where P is pressure, V is volume, n is the number of moles, R is the universal gas constant, and T is temperature.
