mole of an ideal gas is contained in a cubical volume V, ABCDEFGH at 300 K. One face of the cube (EFGH) is made up of a material which totally absorbs any gas molecule incident on it. At any given time, choose the incorrect option(s).

Question

In the ideal case that we normally consider, each collision transfers twice the magnitude of its normal momentum. On the absorbing face EFGH, it transfers only half of that, so the pressure on EFGH is half that on ABCD. Statements (A), (B) and (C) are therefore incorrect.
