Question

According to the kinetic theory of gases, the
pressure exerted by a gas on the walls is
measured as
(a) rate of change of momentum imparted to the walls per
second per unit area
(b) momentum imparted to the walls per unit area
(c) change of momentum imparted to the walls per unit
area.
(d) change in momentum per unit volume

Answer 1

Answer:

option c

Explanation:

change in momentum is transferred to walls of container consequently pressure is exerted by gas molecules on wall of container
