As the temperature increases, average kinetic energy of molecules increases. What would be the effect of increase of temperature on pressure provided the volume is constant?
(i) increases
(ii) decreases
(iii) remains same
(iv) becomes half
The answer is the option (i) increases
Explanation: Kinetic energy of molecules α temperature
Therefore, according to Gay Lussac's law, at constant volume, temperature as well as pressure both increases.
