Question

the temperature of an ideal gas can be raised by

Answer 1

Explanation:

PV = nRT

We know that temperature is proportional to the average kinetic energy of a sample of gas. The proportionality constant is (2/3)R and R is the gas constant with a value of 0.08206 L atm K-1 mol-1 or 8.3145 J K-1 mol-1.

(KE)ave = (2/3)RT

As the average kinetic energy increases, the temperature increases as does the velocity of the gas particles hitting the walls of the container. The force exerted by the particles per unit of area on the container is the pressure, so as the temperature increases the pressure must also increase.
