Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

From the equation,

PV = nRT

The unit of volume in ideal gas equation can be expressed as (L or m³).

Pressure is usually measured in atm or Torr but preferably atm or mmHg. Using either of the latter instead of the former, it becomes easy to reconcile units together during equation
