QUESTION:

Problem 53P

Use the kinetic-molecular theory to explain the change in gas pressure that results from warming a sample of gas.

ANSWER:

Solution 53P:

Here, we are going to explain the change in gas pressure that results from warming a sample of gas by using the kinetic-molecular theory.

Step 1:

The main postulates of kinetic-molecular theory are given below:

  1. The gas molecule is consist of a large number of individual particles. The volume of each particle is negligible as compare the volume of the container.
  2. The individual gas particles are in constant, random, straight-line motion.
  3. The collision of the particles are elastic. The collide particles exchange their energy but they do not any energy during friction. Therefore, the kinetic energy of the particle is constant.
