If a gas expands at constant temperature, it indicates that
  1. kinetic energy of molecules decreases
  2. pressure of the gas increases
  3. kinetic energy of molecules remains the same
  4. number of the molecules of gas increases

Solution

Key Idea : $\begin{gathered} K E=\frac{3}{2} R T \\ \mathrm{KE} \propto \mathrm{T} \end{gathered}$ Here, the temperature of gas remains constant, hence kinetic energy of molecules remains the same.
