Molecules moving in a rigid box cause pressure on the sides of the box. Pick from the following the list of factors which will affect the pressure of the gas in the box.

Question

Options:

1. Number of molecules, temperature, and color of gas
2.  Number of molecules, speed of molecules, and color of gas
3.  Temperature, size of the box, and number of molecules
4.  Color of the gas, size of a molecule, and temperature

Answer 1

Temperature, size of the box, and number of molecules

The color of the gas has nothing to do with the pressure exerted by the gas
