Pressure of an ideal gas is increased by keeping temperature constant. What is effect on kinetic energy of molecules?
Options
- AIncrease
- BDecrease
- CNo change
- DCannot be determined
Correct answer
C. No change
Step-by-step solution
Kinetic energy of an ideal gas depends only on its temperature. Hence, it remains constant whether its pressure is increased or decreased.
