Question

A 1.87 mol sample of Ar gas is confined in a 45.5 liter container at 23.6 °C.

Answer 1

Answer:

a. increase

Explanation:

Based on the kinetic molecular theory of gases, the average kinetic energy of the system will increase.

• The average kinetic energy is heat
• If temperature increases, heat of a system will also rise.
• According the kinetic molecular theory "the temperature of the gas is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules"

Therefore, due to the increase in temperature, the average kinetic energy of the system increases.
