Question

Which of the following is an example of using the Division Property of Equality to rearrange the equation PV=nRT ?(1 point) Responses 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 T=PVnR upper T equals upper P upper V n upper R R=nTPV

Answer 1

The Division Property of Equality states that if you divide both sides of an equation by the same nonzero number, the two sides remain equal.

In the equation \( PV = nRT \), if you want to solve for \( n \), you would divide both sides by \( RT \).

This gives:

\[ n = \frac{PV}{RT} \]

Thus, the correct response that uses the Division Property of Equality to rearrange the equation is:

n = Start Fraction P V over R T End Fraction
