Problem 2
Which of the following postulates of the kinetic-molecular theory best describes Gay-Lussac's law? Why?
A
The postulate that best describes Gay-Lussac's law is "gas particles' kinetic energy is proportional to the Kelvin temperature," because this shows that the pressure and temperature of gas particles have a linear relationship.
B
The postulate that best describes Gay-Lussac's law is "gas particles occupy a much smaller amount of space than the amount of space between particles," because this shows that gas can be compressed without gas molecule interactions.
C
The postulate that best describes Gay-Lussac's law is "gas particle collisions are elastic, whether they are with other particles or the container wall," because this shows that all of the kinetic energy is converted into gas pressure.
D
All of the above.
