Different units can be used for length: m and cm, and of these two, m is the larger by a factor of 100 . Different units can also be used for R: (1) J/mol/K, (2) L/atm/mol/K, and (3) (N/m2)/m3/mol/K. Which of these units for R is the largest? Hint: When expressing R in each of these units, which expression has the lowest numerical factor? (1 L = 10?3 m3, 1 atm = 1.01 × 10^5 Pa)

a. 1 b. 2 c. 3 d. They are all equal.
