A molecule in a gas container hits a horizontal wall with speed 200 ms-1 and angle 30° with the normal and rebounds with same speed. Is momentum conserved in the collision? Is the collision elastic or inelastic?

as the linear momentum is always conserved unless an external force applied on body. i.e. Fext =0 and acording to question the molecule rebound on wall so that intial kinetic energy and final kinetic energy will same i.e. KEi=KEf as the momentum is conserved then collision is elastic.

The Earth moving round the Sun in a circular orbit is acted upon by a force, and hence
work must be done on the Earth by this force. Do you agree with this statement?
The force on earth jn circular trajectory is gravity,acting radially inward...the direction of motion is tangential.....as u knw work is dot product of force and dx, the work done is zero.
