Based on the kinetic molecular theory, which of the following statements is correct about a sample of gas at a constant temperature and volume?

The net kinetic energy of its particles decreases due to collisions.
The net kinetic energy of its particles increases due to collisions.
It has a constant average kinetic energy.
Its average kinetic energy is always zero.

C) It has a constant average kinetic energy

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy of the particles in a gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas, according to the equation.

k is the Boltzmann's constant

T is the absolute temperature of the gas

Therefore, temperature of a gas is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles.

In this problem, we are told that the gas is at constant temperature (and volume): therefore, according to the previous equation, this means that the average kinetic energy is also constant.

here we have to get the change of moles on decrease the volume of the reaction in gas phase.

the   per the given options it will decrease by (d) 11-50%

we know, on decreasing the volume of the gas phase reaction the reaction moves to the product side.

the reaction:                     so₂cl₂ (g) = so₂ (g) + cl₂ (g)         total

the moles at equilibrium:   1 - α                 α               α           = 1+α

concentrations:                   1 - α               α               α           = 1 + α

(concentration = moles/volume, as volume is 1 l)

(where α is the degree of dissociation)

now the dissociation constant in terms of concentration is :

=  

or,

or,   = (at v = 1l)

the reaction:                     so₂cl₂ (g) = so₂ (g) + cl₂ (g)         total

the moles at equilibrium:   1 - α                 α               α           = 1+α

concentrations:               (1 - α)/0.5           α/0.5         α/0.5       = (1 + α)/0.5

thus, the dissociation constant in terms of concentration is :

or,  

=  

so, the change of 1 : 1/0.5

or, 1: 2

thus it will decrease by 50%.

or, as per the given options it will decrease by 11-50%

kuchisake

kuchisake-onna (口裂け女, "slit mouth woman ") is a malevolent figure appearing in japanese ghost stories, possibly dating back to the edo period. she takes the form of a masked woman who approaches people and asks them if they believe she is pretty.
