Which sequence describes the result of increasing the number of gas particles in a container? A.) fewer collisions --> lower collision force --> lower pressure B.)more collisions --> lower collision force --> lower pressure C.) fewer collisions --> greater collision force -->higher pressure D.)more collisions --> greater collision force --> higher pressure

Respuesta :

i think the answer is c because it would have a greater pressure but also a higher collision force


Answer:The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

When the particles in a container are increased the number of collisions taking place after the increment in number of particles will be more than the number of collisions occurring before.

As we know that gas particles are not stationary and will move in a from one place to another while colliding with other gas particles also. Increase in number of gas particles will increase the randomness of the gas particles which results in increase in number of collisions.

With increase in number of collision the the collision force increases .Force and pressure are directly related to each other. Hence, pressure exerted by the gas particles on the walls of the container will also get increase.
