Correct answer: Gas particles have a small volume relative to the spaces between them.

Explanation: The kinetic-molecular theory assumes gas particles are tiny compared to the distances separating them (negligible volume), are in constant random motion, and experience elastic collisions with no significant intermolecular forces.
