What is the relationship between kinetic energy and the striking of gas particles on the container walls?
Options
- AKinetic energy decreases with increased striking
- BThere is no relationship
- CKinetic energy increases with increased striking
- DKinetic energy remains constant
Correct answer
C. Kinetic energy increases with increased striking
Step-by-step solution
When a gas is heated, the kinetic energy of the particles increases, and as a result, they strike the walls of the container more frequently, thus exerting more pressure.
