According to kinetic theory of gases,
A. The motion of the gas molecules freezes at 0∘C0^\circ C
B. The mean free path of gas molecules decreases if the density of molecules is increased.
C. The mean free path of gas molecules increases if temperature is increased keeping pressure constant.
D. Average kinetic energy per molecule per degree of freedom is 32 kBT\frac{3}{2}\,{k_B}T (for monoatomic gases).
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
B and C only
Option B (B and C only) is correct because the mean free path decreases with increasing density and increases with increasing temperature at constant pressure.
