Question
A 0.826 mol sample of O2 gas is confined in a 19.4 liter container at 13.6 oC.
If the temperature of the gas sample is increased to 35.3 oC, holding the volume constant, the pressure will increase because:
Choose all that apply.
Explanation / Answer
Kinetic molecular Theory says average kinetic energy of the particle depends on temperature .if temperature is increased kinetic energy also increases.since k.e=1/2 *m*v^2 .since mass is constant only velocity should increase.with increase in velocity the molecules give more impact to walls or exert more force resulting in increased pressure so option D
