A gas is filled in a cylinder fitted with piston at a constant temperature and pressure. Explain on the basis of kinetic theory :
(i) The pressure of the gas increases by raising its temperature.
(ii) On pulling the piston out, the pressure of the gas decreases.
The pressure of an ideal gas filled in the bulb of a constant - volume gas thermomrter at `7^(@)C` is 60 cm of mercury. What will be the pressure of the same volume of gas at `147^(@)C` ?

To solve the given question, we will break it down into two parts as per the requirements. ### Part (i): Explain why the pressure of the gas increases by raising its temperature based on kinetic theory. 1. **Understanding Kinetic Theory**: According to the kinetic theory of gases, gas consists of a large number of small particles (molecules) that are in constant random motion. The temperature of the gas is a measure of the average kinetic energy of these molecules. 2. **Effect of Temperature on Kinetic Energy**: When the temperature of the gas increases, the average kinetic energy of the gas molecules also increases. This means that the molecules move faster. ...
