  1. A Gases are considered as point masses
  2. B Kinetic energy of gas molecules increases with temperature
  3. C Total energy of molecules before and after the collisions is different
  4. D The distribution of molecular speed of a gas remains constant at a particular temperature
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Total energy of molecules before and after the collisions is different

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The explanation of given statements are as follows: (a) Gas particles are considered as point masses or rigid particles. (b) Kinetic energy of gas molecules are directly proportional to absolute temperature. \[ \therefore \quad \text { K.E. } \propto T \] Therefore, K.E.…
