(2) There are no forces of interaction between its molecules.

(3) It strictly obeys the ideal gas laws.

(4) All of these

A real gas behaves as an ideal gas at:

(1) Very low pressure and high temperature.

(2) High pressure and low temperature.

(3) High pressure and high temperature.

(4) Low pressure and low temperature.

A gas at a pressure P₀ is contained in a vessel. If the masses of all the molecules are halved and their velocities doubled, then the resulting pressure P will be:

(1) 4P₀

(2) 2P₀

(3) P₀

(4) $\frac{{\mathrm{P}}_0}{2}$

If E is the energy density in an ideal gas, then the pressure of the ideal gas is:

(1) $P=\frac{2}{3}E$

(2) $P=\frac{3}{2}E$

(3) $P=\frac{5}{2}E$

(4) $P=\frac{2}{5}E$

A sample of a gas in a box is at pressure P₀ and temperature T₀. If the number of molecules is doubled and the total kinetic energy of the gas is kept constant, then the final temperature and pressure will be:

(1) ${\mathrm{T}}_0, {\mathrm{P}}_0$

(2) ${\mathrm{T}}_0, 2{\mathrm{P}}_0$

(3) $\frac{{\mathrm{T}}_0}{2}$, $2{\mathrm{P}}_0$

The average velocity of gas molecules is:

(1) proportional to $\sqrt{\mathrm{T}}$.

(2) proportional to T.

Which of the following methods will enable the volume of an ideal gas to be increased four times?

(1) Double the temperature and reduce the pressure to half.

(2) Double the temperature and also double the pressure.

(3) Reduce the temperature to half and double the pressure.

(4) Reduce the temperature to half and reduce the pressure to half.

The average speed of gas molecules is v at pressure P. If by keeping the temperature constant, the pressure of the gas is doubled, then average speed will become:

(1) $\sqrt{2}v$

(2) v

(3) 2v

(4) $\frac{v}{\sqrt{2}}$

Four molecules of a gas have speeds of 1, 2, 3 and 4 km/s. The value of the r.m.s. speed of the gas molecules is:

(1) $\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{15} \mathrm{km}/\mathrm{s}$

(2) $\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{10} \mathrm{km}/\mathrm{s}$

(3) 2.5 km/s

(4) $\sqrt{\frac{15}{2}} \mathrm{km}/\mathrm{s}$

The rms speed of the molecules of an enclosed gas is \(v\). What will be the rms speed if the pressure is doubled, keeping the temperature constant?
