Answer:

a. As a container of confined gas is heated, its molecules increase in kinetic energy and push the movable piston outward, resulting in an increase in volume.

B. When you heat them,you essentially give them kinetic energy which increases their speed and hence the distance between molecules increases implying that interatomic forces decreases,leading to change in state from solid to liquid

C. When the gas is heated the particles gain kinetic energy which makes them move faster. This means they collide with the walls more frequently and with greater force and so the pressure increases.

D. Both the increase in pressure and the decrease in temperature cause the volume of the gas sample to decrease. Since both changes are relatively small, the volume does not decrease dramatically.

E. When an object is heated the motion of the particles increases as the particles become more energetic. If it is cooled the motion of the particles decreases as they lose energy.

F. Cooling slows the velocities of the He atoms, causing them to behave as though they were heavier. 6. Both the temperature and the volume are doubled for this gas (n constant), so P remains constant. (a) The number of collisions per unit area of the container wall is constant.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope you understand :)
