The diagram shows the movement of particles from one end of the container to the opposite end of the container.Which event is most likely occurring?

Question illustration
A
diffusion because particles move from regions of high concentration to regions of low concentration
B
diffusion because particles move from regions of low concentration to regions of high concentration
C
effusion because there is a movement of a gas through a small opening into a larger volume
D
effusion because there is a movement of a gas through a large opening into a smaller volume

A graph of gas pressure versus the number of particles in a container is a straight line. Which other relationship will have a similar graph?

A
volume versus pressure, because they are also directly proportional
B
volume versus temperature, because they are also directly proportional
C
volume versus pressure, because they are also inversely proportional
D
volume versus temperature, because they are also inversely proportional
4

Which is an example of the kinetic-molecular theory not holding true for a gas?

A
The average kinetic energy of particles depends only on the temperature.
B
The particles in a gas travel in straight lines in a continuous, random motion.
C
The attraction between particles causes a gas to condense at low temperatures.
D
The particles in a gas make up a small portion of the total volume of the gas.
5

Which statement describes effusion?

A
It occurs when a gas passes through a tiny hole.
B
It occurs when a liquid passes through a tiny hole.
C
It occurs when gas molecules disperse throughout a container.
D
It occurs when a liquid disperses throughout a container.
7

Which statement best describes the compressibility of a gas?

A
Increasing the temperature of a gas decreases the pressure.
B
Increasing the temperature of a gas increases the pressure.
C
Increasing the pressure on a gas decreases the volume.
D
Increasing the pressure on a gas increases the volume.
8

Which statement best describes the collisions of gas particles according to the kinetic-molecular theory?

A
When particles pass close enough to one another, their attractions pull them together, and then they bounce apart with no gain or loss of energy.
B
As particles travel in straight lines, their paths sometimes meet, and then they bounce apart with no gain or loss of energy.
C
When particles pass close enough to one another, their attractions pull them together, and then they bounce apart with a loss of energy.
D
As particles travel in straight lines, their paths sometimes meet, and then they bounce apart with a loss of energy.
9

Which statement about gases is true?

A
They are made up of particles that always move very slowly.
B
They are made up of particles that travel in a curved path when in motion.
C
They are made up of hard spheres that vibrate quickly in stationary positions.
D
They are made up of hard spheres that are in random motion.
10

According to the kinetic-molecular theory, the collision between two ideal gas particles is a result of

A
neither attraction nor repulsion.
B
repulsion from the wall of the container.
C
repulsion from other gas particles.
D
attraction between the two particles.
