Answer: They are moving very fast and are far apart.

Step-by-step explanation:
The ideal gas theory states that:
(a) Gas contains a large number of molecules.
(b) The molecules are in random motion and they experience elastic
collisions. The molecules move faster at elevated temperatures.
(c) The volume of the molecules is much smaller than the volume of gas.
Therefore the molecules are far apart.
