5.

Explain the concept of diffusion in gases.

a)

Diffusion in gases refers to the movement of gas molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration until equilibrium is reached.

b)

Diffusion in gases is the movement of liquid molecules from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration.

c)

Diffusion in gases is the process of converting gas molecules into solid particles.

d)

Diffusion in gases only occurs in solids, not in gases themselves.

a)

Exponential relationship

b)

Direct relationship

c)

Inverse relationship

d)

No relationship

7.

Why do gases expand to fill their containers?

a)

Gases expand to fill their containers due to the constant, random motion of their particles and the pressure they exert on the container walls.

b)

Gases expand to fill their containers due to the color of the container

c)

Gases expand to fill their containers because they are attracted to the container walls

d)

Gases expand to fill their containers because they are solid particles

8.

What is the difference between compressibility of gases and liquids?

a)

Gases are highly compressible, while liquids are nearly incompressible.

b)

Both gases and liquids are equally compressible.

c)

Gases are incompressible, while liquids are compressible.

d)

Liquids are more compressible than gases.

9.

How does the density of a gas change with temperature?

a)

Gas density decreases with increasing temperature.

b)

Gas density remains constant with changing temperature.

c)

Gas density increases with increasing temperature.

d)

Gas density is not affected by temperature.

10.

Describe the behavior of gases under high pressure.

a)

Gases under high pressure become less dense

b)

Gases under high pressure solidify

c)

Gases under high pressure tend to occupy less volume and become more dense.

d)

Gases under high pressure expand and occupy more volume
