Which one of the following statements is NOT true about the effect of an increase in temperature on the distribution of molecular speeds in a gas?
Options
- AThe most probable speed increases
- BThe fraction of the molecules with the most probable speed increases
- CThe distribution becomes broader
- DThe area under the distribution curve remains the same as under the lower temperature
Correct answer
