4.

You stand at the end of a long hallway. At the other end, your classmate releases equal amounts of two gases, carbon-dioxide and chlorine. Which one reaches you first?

a)

Cl2

b)

CO2

c)

5.

According to kinetic molecular theory: at constant temperature, increasing the volume will decrease the pressure because...

a)

the gas particles must travel farther from wall to wall.

b)

P and V are on the same side of the ideal gas law equation.

c)

the average velocity of the gas particles decreases.

d)

the potential energy of the gas particles has gone down

6.

According to kinetic molecular theory: at constant volume, increasing the temperature will increase the pressure because...

a)

the gas particles are moving faster; faster = more collisions-per-second.

b)

the heat transferred when the temp was raised is stored as potential energy.

c)

the increased temp makes the gas particles larger resulting in more collisions.

d)

science.

7.

The pressure of a gas at 22 °C goes from 3 atm to 6 atm, with volume held constant. It's new temperature is...

a)

44 °C

b)

11 °C

c)

317 °C

d)

0 °C

8.

According to kinetic molecular theory, more moles of gas means more pressure at the same volume and temperature because...

a)

more moles = more collisions

b)

more moles = higher gas constant

c)

more moles = higher kinetic energy

d)

more moles = more problems

9.
