What would happen to gases if there were a loss of kinetic energy during collisions?
Options
- AThey would become more compressible
- BThey would expand rapidly
- CThe motion of molecules would stop, and gases would settle down
- DThey would exhibit higher pressure
Correct answer
C. The motion of molecules would stop, and gases would settle down
Step-by-step solution
If there were a loss of kinetic energy during collisions, the motion of gas molecules would stop, and gases would settle down.
