Question

Fill in the blank:

When the velocity of gas molecules increases, their kinetic energy ______.

Answer 1

1. When the temperature of a gas is increased, the molecules start moving with more and more velocity, and the number of collisions of the molecules on a given area on the walls of the container in time increases.
2. Since, the velocity of the gas molecules increases, the kinetic energy of the molecules also increases.

So, the given statement is true.
