Question

which sequence represents the relationship between temperature and volume as explained by the kinetic-molecular theory?

option 1:
higher temperature \\(\
ightarrow\\) more kinetic energy \\(\
ightarrow\\) more space between particles \\(\
ightarrow\\) higher volume

option 2:
higher temperature \\(\
ightarrow\\) less kinetic energy \\(\
ightarrow\\) less space between particles \\(\
ightarrow\\) higher volume

option 3:
higher temperature \\(\
ightarrow\\) less kinetic energy \\(\
ightarrow\\) more space between particles \\(\
ightarrow\\) lower volume

option 4:
higher temperature \\(\
ightarrow\\) more kinetic energy \\(\
ightarrow\\) less space between particles \\(\
ightarrow\\) lower volume

Explanation:

Relate temperature to kinetic energy

An increase in temperature increases the average kinetic energy of the gas particles.

Relate kinetic energy to particle spacing

As particles move faster with more kinetic energy, they collide more forcefully and frequently, pushing each other further apart and creating more space between particles.

Relate particle spacing to volume

More space between the gas particles results in an expansion, which corresponds to a higher volume.

Answer:

  • **higher temperature \(

ightarrow\) more kinetic energy \(
ightarrow\) more space between particles \(
ightarrow\) higher volume (Correct answer)**

  • higher temperature \(

ightarrow\) less kinetic energy \(
ightarrow\) less space between particles \(
ightarrow\) higher volume

  • higher temperature \(

ightarrow\) less kinetic energy \(
ightarrow\) more space between particles \(
ightarrow\) lower volume

  • higher temperature \(

ightarrow\) more kinetic energy \(
ightarrow\) less space between particles \(
ightarrow\) lower volume
