Answer:

The pressure and volume of a gas are inversely related

Step-by-step explanation:

If we look at all the options stated; we will notice that all the statements are correct according to the kinetic theory of gases; except the statement "The pressure and volume of a gas are inversely related".

Recall that the inverse relationship between pressure and volume of a gas is captured by Boyle's law and not the kinetic molecular theory. Hence this statement is not part of the kinetic molecular theory.
