What will happen to the gas molecules in the container as thermal energy is applied?

a-The movement, kinetic energy, and pressure of the molecules will increase.
b-The movement, kinetic energy, and pressure of the molecules will decrease.
c-The movement, kinetic energy, and pressure of the molecules will stay the same.
d-The movement of the molecules will increase, but the kinetic energy and pressure of the molecules will stay the same.

PLZ HELP I HAVE A BENCHMARK TEST!!!!

Respuesta :

Decreased because we all know what happen if we put it with thermal energy

When thermal energy is supplied to gas molecules in the container, the movement, kinetic energy, and pressure of the molecules will increase.

Gas molecules are in constant random motion. They collide frequently which other and the walls of the container.

When thermal energy is applied, the gases move faster (acquire higher velocity). The kinetic energy also increases accordingly.

As a result of the increase in thermal energy, gas molecules collide with the walls of the container more frequently (pressure increases).
