Which sequence describes the result of increasing the temperature of a gas in a container?

A
higher kinetic energy ® greater collision force ® higher pressure
B
lower kinetic energy ® greater collision force ® higher pressure
C
higher kinetic energy ® lower collision force ® lower pressure
D
lower kinetic energy ® lower collision force ® lower pressure

A
more gas particles more collisions higher pressure
Option A
B
smaller volume crowded particles less collisions lower pressure
Option B
C
smaller volume crowded particles more collisions higher pressure
Option C
D
more gas particles more kinetic energy more volume higher pressure
Option D

Why does changing the volume of a container change the pressure of the gas in it?

A
Changing the volume reduces the number of molecules so they hit the walls of the container less often.
B
Changing the volume reduces the force with which the molecules hit the walls of the container.
C
Changing the volume increases the speed of the molecules so they hit the walls of the container more often.
D
Changing the volume increases the area that the molecules collide with so the force is spread over a larger area.

The diagrams show gases that are stored in two separate but similar containers.If both gases are at the same temperature, which one has the greater pressure?

Question illustration
A
gas 1 because the particles are moving much faster
B
gas 1 because it has fewer particles that are close together
C
gas 2 because it has more particles that are colliding
D
gas 2 because the particles have more space between them

Which statement describes a limitation of the kinetic-molecular theory for a gas?

A
The theory assumes that particles do not experience intermolecular forces.
B
The theory states that pressure is inversely proportional to volume.
C
The theory assumes that particles are in random and continuous motion.
D
The theory states that pressure increases with temperature.
