(D) The ideal gas equation is given by $PV = nRT$.Rearranging this for $n$,we get $n = \frac{PV}{RT}$.Here,$P$ is the pressure,$V$ is the volume,$R$ is the universal gas constant,and $T$ is the absolute temperature.By substituting the $SI$ units of each term:$n = \frac{(	ext{Pa}) \cdot (	ext{m}^3)}{(	ext{J} \cdot 	ext{mol}^{-1} \cdot 	ext{K}^{-1}) \cdot (	ext{K})}$Since $1 	ext{ Pa} = 1 	ext{ N/m}^2$ and $1 	ext{ J} = 1 	ext{ N} \cdot 	ext{m}$,the units simplify as follows:$n = \frac{(	ext{N/m}^2) \cdot (	ext{m}^3)}{	ext{J/mol}} = \frac{	ext{N} \cdot 	ext{m}}{	ext{J/mol}} = \frac{	ext{J}}{	ext{J/mol}} = 	ext{mol}$.Therefore,$n$ represents the number of moles of the gas.Correct choice is $D$.

In the relation $n = \frac{PV}{RT}$,what does $n$ represent?
