Which sequence describes the result of increasing the temperature of a gas in a container?

higher kinetic energy ® greater collision force ® higher pressure
lower kinetic energy ® greater collision force ® higher pressure
higher kinetic energy ® lower collision force ® lower pressure
lower kinetic energy ® lower collision force ® lower pressure

The answer is a bc the higher kinetic energy put more force and pressure

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Increasing the temperatures of the gas causes the molecules to have higher kinetic energy. This means they move more rapidly and therefore the collisions between the particles and with the walls of the container are more forceful (this is how pressure increases).
