PV = nRT solve for R.
PV = nRT
First divide by n: PV/n = RT
Now how do you think you can isolate R from T?
Hey i had actually gotten up to that part i had PV/n and it would make since to divide the T on both sides but i don't understand PV/n/T??
PV/n/t is correct. Dividing by n and dividing by t can be simplified to PV/(nt)
To solve for R in the equation PV = nRT, we need to rearrange the equation to isolate R.
First, let's review the equation and its variables:
- P represents pressure
- V represents volume
- n represents the number of moles of gas
- R is the ideal gas constant
- T represents temperature in Kelvin
Now, let's rearrange the equation to solve for R:
Step 1: Divide both sides of the equation by (nT) to isolate R:
PV / (nT) = R
Step 2: Simplify the equation:
R = PV / (nT)
So, the value of R can be determined by dividing the product of pressure (P) and volume (V) by the product of the number of moles (n) and temperature (T) in Kelvin.
It's important to note that in order to get the numerical value for R, you will need to know the specific values for P, V, n, and T in the problem you are trying to solve.
