Question: The quantity $ \frac{PV}{KT} $ for an ideal gas represent (k = Boltzmann’s constant)

Options:

A) number of moles of the gas

B) total mass of the gas

C) number of molecules in the gas

D) density of the gas

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

[c] $ \frac{PV}{kT}=\frac{nR}{k}=\frac{nR}{R/N}=nN $ = number of molecule of the gas
