PV=nRT

Here

P=Pressure

V=Volume

n=Molarity

R=universal gas constant

T=Temperature.

LHS


\\ \tt\bull\leadsto PV


\\ \tt\bull\leadsto [ML^2T^(-2)][M^0L^3T^0]


\\ \tt\bull\leadsto [ML^5T^(-2)]

RHS


\\ \tt\bull\leadsto nRT


\\ \tt\bull\leadsto [M^0L^(3)T^0][M^1 L^2 T^(-2)K^(-1)][M^0L^0T^0K^1]


\\ \tt\bull\leadsto [ML^5T^(-2)]

LHS=RHS

hence verified
