Root mean square velocity for the gas molecules.

An ideal gas in a closed container is slowly heated. As its temperature increases, which of the following statements are true ? 

(A) the mean free path of the molecules decreases

(B) the mean collision time between the molecules decreases.

(C) the mean free path remains unchanged.

According to kinetic theory of gases,

A. The motion of the gas molecules freezes at $0°\mathrm{C}$.

B. The mean free path of gas molecules decreases if the density of molecules is increased.

C. The mean free path of gas molecules increases if temperature is increased keeping pressure constant.

D. Average kinetic energy per molecule per degree of freedom is $\frac{3}{2}{k}_{B}T$ (for monoatomic gases).

As shown schematically in the figure, two vessels contain water solutions (at temperature $T$) of potassium permanganate $\left({\mathrm{KMnO}}_4\right)$ of different concentrations $n_1$ and $n_2\left(n_1>n_2\right)$ molecules per unit volume with $\mathrm{\Delta }n=\left(n_1-n_2\right)\ll n_1.$ When they are connected by a tube of small length $l$ and cross-sectional area $S, {\mathrm{KMnO}}_4$ starts to diffuse from the left to the right vessel through the tube. Consider the collection of molecules to behave as dilute ideal gases and the difference in their partial pressure in the two vessels causing the diffusion. The speed $v$ of the molecules is limited by the viscous force $-\beta v$ on each molecule, where $\beta$ is a constant. Neglecting all terms of the order ${\left(\mathrm{\Delta }n\right)}^2$. Which of the following is/are correct? ($k_B$ is the Boltzmann constant)

Consider an ideal gas confined in an isolated closed chamber. As the gas undergoes an adiabatic expansion, the average time of collision between molecules increases as $V^{\mathrm{q}}$ , where $V$ is the volume of the gas. The value of $q$ is:

$\left(\gamma =\frac{{\mathrm{C}}_{\mathit{P}}}{{\mathrm{C}}_v}\right)$
