Which of the following statements is NOT correct?

The average kinetic energy of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature

At constant tempearture, the volume of a gas increases as the pressure increases

The pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume

The temperature of a gas is directly proportional to its volume

The collisions of molecules with each other are inelastic

Answer Details

Increasing the pressure confines the gas molecules to a smaller space, thereby reducing the volume. Reducing the pressure the other way round increases the volume of a gas.
