Question

Question 3 options:

Kelvin temperature is directly proportional to average kinetic energy of particles. This means that, the higher the temperature of a gas sample, the ___________________ the particles move on average. (Choose from the words: slower, faster or same).

Answer 1

Faster

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between the temperature and the kinetic energy is directly proportional. The higher the temperature, the higher will be the kinetic energy. When there is a rise in the temperature, the molecules or particles present in a gas sample starts to vibrate at their mean position and after that it will start to move because of the large inter-molecular space in the gas molecules. Therefore, the velocity of the molecules increases with respect to the increase in temperature and finally the overall kinetic energy increases.
