Asked by Jack
How does the kinetic-molecular theory help explain the difference between solids, liquids, and gases?
I don't know how to really answer this question because the theory only talks about gases, unless I am looking at the wrong one. I tried to look it up swell and all I got were theories on gases instead of all three.

I think the question is getting at the assumptions of the KMT. The gas molecules are points and occupy no volume (liquids and solids don't do that); there is no attractions between gas molecules (not true for liquids or solids), etc.
