Consider a mixture consisting of argon gas and nitrogen gas. Assuming that the partial pressures and the volume of the gases at a certain temperature are the same, compare the number of argon atoms and nitrogen molecules.

• A. Using the ideal gas law, it can be confirmed that the number of argon atoms and nitrogen molecules is equal.
• B. Using the ideal gas law, it is known that the number of argon atoms is greater than the number of nitrogen molecules.
• C. Using the ideal gas law, it is known that the number of argon atoms is less than the number of nitrogen molecules.
• D. The information that the partial pressures and the volume of the gases at a certain temperature are the same is not sufficient to predict the number of molecules or atoms of the gases.

Answer: (A)
