Answer:

The values are about the same

Explanation:

The ideal gas law tells us the relationship of the pressure, temperature, and volume of a gas consisting of n moles of that gas:

PV = nRT, where

P = Pressure

V = Volume

n = moles of the gas

R = the gas constant, and

T = Temperature

No data is provided on the "five values obtained" for the ratio PV/(nT). But if we rewrite the the ideal gas law to find PV/nT, we find:

PV=nRT

PV/nT = R

While experimental results often differ from theory, one would expect all five ratios to be idential, or "similar" since experimental errors are involved.

The values are about the same. This is the best answer

The values are greater at higher temperatures.

The values are greater at higher pressures.

O The values are greater at higher volumes.
