279/as The Kinetic Molecular Theory ts Understand Postulates of the Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases Question Which of the following is true regarding the size of gas molecules, according to the kinetic molecular theory? Select the correct answer below O The size of the molecules is small but Cannot be neglected O The size of the molecules is so small compared to the distance between them that the size is taken to be negligible The distance between molecules is small so their size is taken to be negligibl des & O The size of the molecules depends on the temperature

Answer 1

Thanks!!

"2nd option ie ""The size of molecules is so small compared to the distance between them that the size is taken to be negligible"". Explanation: The 1st postulate of kinetic theory of gases states that ""the molecules in a gas are small and very for a part. The most of the volume which a gas occupies is empty space. So it means that gas particles are very small as compared to distance between them and can be neglected. Extra Knowledge implies This is only applicable to gas molecules and not for solid or liquid as their particle size are much bigger than the distance between them."
