Question

A container has N molecules at absolute
temperature T. If the number of molecules is
doubled but kinetic energy in the box remains the
same as before, the absolute temperature of the gas
is
(1) T
(2) T/2
(3) 2T
(4) Zero

Answer 1

Answer:

As the molecules of a substance approach this temperature, their movement drop towards zero. So if you double the number of molecules in a container at its absolute temperature, it will make no difference to their Kinetic Energy. The reason is that molecules have kinetic energy due to the motion.
