Which is an aspect of the kinetic-molecular theory and can be used to explain the compressibility of plasmas? Particles move independently of one another and are widely spaced. Particle kinetic energy increases with increasing temperature. Particles exert no attractive or repulsive force on one another. Particles always move even when they have fixed positions.

Answer: Particles move independently of one another and are widely spaced.

Step-by-step explanation:

The postulates of kinetic theory are:

1)All the molecules are made up of molecules which are rigid spheres

2) The molecules are identical for a particular gas and different for different gases.

3) All the molecules move in random motion in all direction.

4) During random motion they collide with each other as and hence exert pressure

5) During collision the molecules move in a straight line path known as free path

6) The size of the molecule of a gas is negligible as compare to the distance between the molecule.
