Energy in Particles’ Kinetic Energy Stores is Proportional to Temperature

Question 1

What does particle theory say about gases?

Answer 1

That they consist of very small particles which are constantly moving in completely random direction

Question 2

How much space do the particles take up?

Answer 2

Hardly any space - most of the gas is empty space

Question 3

What do the particles constantly do to each other?

Answer 3

Collide and bound off each other and the container walls

Question 4

What are you doing if you increase the temp of a gas?

Answer 4

You give its particles more energy

Question 5

What happens if you double the temperature (measured in kelvins)?

Answer 5

You double the average energy in the kinetic energy stores of the particles

Question 6

What is the temp of a gas proportional to?

Answer 6

The average energy in the kinetic energy stores of its particles

Question 7

What happened as you heat up a gas?

Answer 7

The average speed of its particle increase

Question 8

What does anything that’s moving has?

Answer 8

Energy in its kinetic energy store

Question 9

What is the energy equal to?

Answer 9

1/2mv²
