Observe the particles of gas pictured above. Choose the 5 statements below that are TRUE of gas particles. a There are forces of attraction between gas particles. b There are no forces of attraction between gas particles. c The collisions between particles are perfectly elastic. d Because gas particles spread out to fill their container, the particles of a gas are much smaller than the distances between them. e Gas particles are in constant, random motion. f The slower the particles of a gas moves, the more frequently and forcefully they will strike the walls of the container. g The collisions between gas particles are inelastic. h The faster the particles of the gas moves, the more frequently and forcefully they will strike the walls of the container.

Answer 1

c The collisions between particles are perfectly elastic.
d Because gas particles spread out to fill their container, the particles of a gas are much smaller than the distances between them.
e Gas particles are in constant, random motion.
g The collisions between gas particles are inelastic.
h The faster the particles of the gas moves, the more frequently and forcefully they will strike the walls of the container.
