Which of the following statements is correct about the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a gas?
- It increase with increase in pressure
- It increase at constant temperature
-
It increase with increase in temperature
- It increase with increase in volume
The correct answer is: C
Explanation
The average kinetic energy of a gas's molecules increases as the temperature of the gas increases.The kinetic energy of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature. This means that as the temperature of a gas increases, so does the average kinetic energy of its molecules.
