Which of the following statements correctly describes the kinetic theory assumption about gas molecules?

Question

Accepted Answer

Gas molecules are in continuous random motion. According to the kinetic theory of gases, molecules are in continuous, rapid, random motion. Gas molecules are assumed to have negligible volume, no intermolecular forces, and undergo perfectly elastic collisions (no loss of kinetic energy).

Answer

A) Gas molecules have significant volume compared to the container

Answer

B) There are strong attractive forces between gas molecules

Answer

C) Gas molecules are in continuous random motion

Answer

D) Collisions between gas molecules result in loss of kinetic energy
