Why is it possible for the distribution of speeds of gas particles to remain constant?
Options
- ABecause gas particles are uniform in size
- BBecause gas particles collide in a predictable manner
- CBecause molecular collisions do not affect particle speeds
- DBecause even though individual speeds change, the distribution remains the same
Correct answer
D. Because even though individual speeds change, the distribution remains the same
Step-by-step solution
The distribution of speeds of gas particles remains constant because, although individual speeds change, the overall distribution does not.
