Question

Which of these is not a correct statement based on what you know about the kinetic molecular theory as it relates to gases?

A.Gas molecules are held together by strong attractive forces.B.The size of the gas molecules is nothing compared to the total volume of the gas.C.The average kinetic energy of gas molecules goes up when the temperature goes up.D.Gas molecules are constaly colliding either with one another or their container walls.E.none of the above

Answer 1

Option (A).

Step-by-step explanation:

The substance can exist in three different forms known as solid, liquid and gas. These forms of the substances are differentiated on the bases of the inter molecular distance, force of attraction and fluidity.

Gases nether have fixed volume nor the fixed shape and can change itself according to the place in which it is kept. The kinetic molecular theory of the gases states that the gases are always in the rapid and random motion. This is possible due to the presence of the least force of attraction among the particles of the gases.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
