$A$ system consists of two types of gas molecules $A$ and $B$ having the same number density $2 \times 10^{25} \, /m^3$. The diameters of $A$ and $B$ are $10 \, \mathring{A}$ and $5 \, \mathring{A}$ respectively. They undergo collisions at room temperature. The ratio of the average distance covered by molecule $A$ to that of $B$ between two successive collisions is $..... \times 10^{-2}$.

An ideal gas in a closed container is slowly heated. As its temperature increases,which of the following statements are true?
$(A)$ The mean free path of the molecules decreases.
$(B)$ The mean collision time between the molecules decreases.
$(C)$ The mean free path remains unchanged.
$(D)$ The mean collision time remains unchanged.

The mean free path of gas molecules depends on $(d =$ molecular diameter$)$

The mean free path of molecules of a certain gas at $STP$ is $1500\,d$,where $d$ is the diameter of the gas molecules. While maintaining the standard pressure,the mean free path of the molecules at $373\,K$ is approximately $..........\,d$

If the volume of the gas containing $n$ number of molecules is $V,$ then the pressure will decrease due to the force of intermolecular attraction in the proportion:
