The smell of hot food moves faster than the smell of cold food. Which property of gas is responsible for this? A. The kinetic en
ergy of gas particles is higher in hot food than in cold food. B. The kinetic energy of gas particles is lower in hot food than than in cold food. C. The volume of gas molecules is higher in hot food than in cold food. D. The pressure exerted by gas molecules is higher in hot food than in cold food.
A. The kinetic energy of gas particles is higher in hot food than in cold food.
Explanation:
The smell of a hot food moves faster than the smell of a cold food because the kinetic energy of gas particles is higher in hot food than in cold food.
Let us establish that the smell of the food perceived are gases from the food.
Both hot food and cold food emits these gases that tinkers our olfactory nerves.
Hot food produces a hot gas.
The higher the temperature the more kinetic energy it possess.
This makes the gases more dispersed and it spreads faster.
The cold food produces gas at a lower kinetic energy.
well, through the process of cellular respiration, the energy in food is converted into energy that can be used by the body's cells. During cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen are converted into carbon dioxide and water, and the energy is transferred to ATP
