Solution
The text you provided is a series of multiple choice questions related to the properties and behaviors of gases. Here are the answers:
-
The statement that does NOT apply to the particles in a gas is "They are not affected by gravity". Gas particles are indeed affected by gravity.
-
The statement that will NOT occur when the gas is heated is "Its particles will collide with each other (and the walls of the container) less frequently". When a gas is heated, its particles move faster and collide more frequently.
-
When the plunger is moved outwards slowly (so that the volume of the container increases), "The pressure will decrease".
-
When the volume of a gas is halved at constant temperature, "It will double" the pressure.
-
The pressure of the air inside a bicycle pump when its volume is reduced to 5 cm3 (assuming constant temperature) will be "400 kPa". This is based on Boyle's law which states that the pressure and volume of a gas have an inverse relationship when temperature is held constant.
-
The statement that does NOT apply to the process when the plunger is pushed down quickly and the temperature of the gas increases is "Work is done by the gas". In this case, work is done on the gas, not by the gas.
