Question

With an increase in the energy of air, the space required to accommodate air molecules:

• A. Increases
• B. Decreases
• C. Remains same
• D. Becomes infinite

Answer 1

The correct option is A Increases

Molecules at higher temperatures have more energy. An increase in the energy of air molecules increases their kinetic energy. Because of this, the space taken up by these molecules will also increase. Hence, the volume of air increases.
