Which outcome occurs when a nonpolar molecular gas undergoes rapid adiabatic expansion?

💡 Explanation

When a nonpolar molecular gas expands adiabatically (no heat exchange) the gas performs work, decreasing the average kinetic energy of its molecules, and thus its temperature. Therefore temperature decreases results, rather than dissociation, spectral shifts, radiation, which involve different mechanisms at higher energies or conditions.
