A
The average kinetic energy of a gas molecule is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.
B
Collisions between gas molecules do not affect their velocities at all.
C
The volume of a gas is independent of the number of molecules present.
D
An increase in pressure at constant volume will decrease the average kinetic energy of the molecules.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The average kinetic energy of a molecule is proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas, as stated in the ideal gas equation and its derivation, indicating that the temperature is a measure of energy.
