According to the kinetic theory of gases,which of the following statements are correct?
$A$. The motion of the gas molecules freezes at $0^{\circ} C$.
$B$. The mean free path of gas molecules decreases if the density of molecules is increased.
$C$. The mean free path of gas molecules increases if temperature is increased keeping pressure constant.
$D$. Average kinetic energy per molecule per degree of freedom is $\frac{3}{2} k_{B} T$ (for monoatomic gases).
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

Air inside a closed container is saturated with water vapour. The air pressure is $p$ and the saturated vapour pressure of water is $\bar{p}$. If the mixture is compressed to one half of its volume by maintaining temperature constant, the pressure becomes

An ideal gas $(\gamma = 1.5)$ is expanded adiabatically. To reduce the root mean square velocity of the molecules by a factor of $2$,the gas should be expanded by how many times?

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$. Statement $I$: Change in internal energy of a system containing $n$ mole of ideal gas can be written as $\Delta U = nC_v(T_f - T_i) = \frac{nR}{\gamma - 1}(T_f - T_i)$, where $\gamma = C_p/C_v, T_i = $ initial temperature, $T_f = $ final temperature. Statement $II$: Relation between degree of freedom $f$ and $\gamma(= C_p/C_v)$ is $\gamma = 1 + \frac{2}{f}$. Choose the correct answer from the options given below.

$A$ gas is filled in the cylinder shown in the figure. The two pistons are joined by a string. If the gas is heated,the pistons will
