Which of the following is an example of using the Division Property of Equality to rearrange the equation PV=nRT ?(1 point)

Question

Responses

T=PVnR
upper T equals upper P upper V n upper R

R=PV−nT
upper R equals upper P upper V minus n upper T

n=PVRT
n equals Start Fraction upper P upper V over upper R upper T End Fraction

R=nTPV

Answer 1

To use the Division Property of Equality on the equation PV = nRT, you would typically rearrange the formula to solve for one variable by dividing both sides by the same factor.

The correct rearrangement that uses the Division Property of Equality to solve for \( n \) is:

n = PV / RT

This is the same as saying:

n = (PV)/(RT)

Therefore, the correct response from the options provided is:

n=PVRT

This captures the essence of the Division Property of Equality, as it involves dividing both sides of the original equation by RT to isolate n.
