When molecules of a gas rebound from a wall of a container, the wall experiences a pressure.
What is the cause of this pressure?
A. the change in energy of the molecules
B. the change in momentum of the molecules
C. the change in power of the molecules
D. the change in speed of the molecules
Diagram 1 shows apparatus being used to observe smoke particles.
Diagram 2 shows how a smoke particle moves randomly.
Why do the smoke particles move randomly?
A. They are hit by air molecules.
B. They are less dense than air.
C. They are moved by convection currents.
D. They gain energy from the light.
A student blows air through a liquid using a straw. This causes the liquid to evaporate quickly and therefore to cool.
Which statement explains why the remaining liquid cools?
A. Slower-moving molecules are carried away by the air bubbles.
B.The air molecules conduct heat from the liquid.
C. The air sets up convection currents in the liquid.
D. The molecules with most energy leave the liquid.
Wet clothes are hanging outside to dry.
Which condition decreases the rate of evaporation of the water from the clothes?
A. folded clothes
B. higher temperature
C. wetter clothes
D. windy day
A gas is heated in a sealed container.
The volume of the container does not change.
What happens to the molecules of the gas?
A. The average distance between molecules increases.
B. The average kinetic energy of the molecules increases
C. The mass of each molecule increases.
D. The volume of each molecule increases.
Which statement about the evaporation of a liquid is correct?
A. The least energetic molecules escape from the surface and the temperature of the liquid decreases.
B. The least energetic molecules escape from the surface and the temperature of the liquid increases.
C. The most energetic molecules escape from the surface and the temperature of the liquid decreases.
D. The most energetic molecules escape from the surface and the temperature of the liquid increases.
Which row describes the arrangement and the motion of the molecules in a gas?
A
B
C
D
A closed container of gas is heated. The
pressure of the gas increases.
Which statement explains this increase in
pressure?
A. The changes in the momentum of the gas molecules striking the walls of the container increase.
B. The forces of attraction between the gas molecules and the walls of the container increase.
C. The gas molecules collide with each other more frequently.
D. The gas molecules lose more energy when they strike the walls of the container.
