Question

at a low temperature, do gas particles exert a large or small pressure? explain your answer

Marilyn Bob-Manuel 3ekt · Accepted Answer

at low temperatures gas particles move less quickly and energetically and collide with container walls less frequently. this exerts a smaller force on the container walls, resulting in a smaller pressure.
