The average kinetic energy and thermal energy decreases, and the temperature decreases as well.
Decomposition is a part of the carbon cycle that occurs slowly hence movement of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere when bacteria decomposes dead matter is a slow part of the carbon cycle.
<h3>What is the carbon cycle?</h3>
The carbon cycle is part of the biogeochemical cycles that exist in nature. It refers to the movement of carbon in the ecosystem. The carbon cycle cuts across the air, the land and the water bodies.
The process in the carbon cycle that occurs slowly among the options is the movement of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere when bacteria decomposes dead matter.

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the last option. The pressure of an enclosed gas depends on the number of molecules in a unit volume and their average kinetic energy, its chemical composition, the altitude about sea level and the number of atoms per molecule. Hope this helps. Have a nice day.
Solution:
At the equivalence point, moles NaOH = moles benzoic acid
HA + NaOH ==> NaA + H2O where HA is benzoic acid
At the equivalence point, all the benzoic acid ==> sodium benzoate
A^- + H2O ==> HA + OH- (again, A^- is the benzoate anion and HA is the weak acid benzoic acid)
Kb for benzoate = 1x10^-14/4.5x10^-4 = 2.22x10^-11
Kb = 2.22x10^-11 = [HA][OH-][A^-] = (x)(x)/0.150
x^2 = 3.33x10^-12
x = 1.8x10^-6 = [OH-]
pOH = -log [OH-] = 5.74
pH = 14 - pOH = 8.26
