What does the kinetic theory state about the relationship between the speed and temperature of gas molecules?

ОА. .
As the temperature increases, the speed of gas molecules remains constant.
OB
As the temperature increases, the speed of gas molecules decreases,
ОС. .
As the temperature increases, the speed of gas molecules increases.
OD
As the speed of gas molecules increases, the temperature becomes constant.
OE
As the temperature decreases, the speed of gas molecules increases.

Answer:

The kinetic molecular theory can be used. Temperature is increased, so the average kinetic energy and the rms speed should also increase. This means that the gas molecules will hit the container walls more frequently and with greater force because they are all moving faster.
