1 answer

The gas constant \( R \) can be expressed in relation to the ideal gas law, which is given by the equation:

\[ PV = nRT \]

From this equation, we can rearrange it to solve for \( R \):

\[ R = \frac{PV}{nT} \]

Based on the provided response options, the correct expression that is equal to the gas constant, \( R \), is:

\( R = \frac{PV}{nT} \)

So the corresponding response is:

PVnT (which is \(\frac{P V}{n T}\))
