Kinetic Molecular Theory

Question 1

States that gas particles are in constant motion and exhibit perfectly elastic collisions

Answer 1

Kinetic molecular theory

Question 2

Can be used to explain both Charles and Boyle’s laws

Answer 2

Kinetic molecular theory

Question 3

Average kinetic energy of gas particles is directly proportional to absolute temperature

Answer 3

Kinetic molecular theory

Question 4

Molecules is determined only by the absolute temperature of the gas

Answer 4

Average kinetic energy

Question 5

Gases are made up of ( blank ), which are separated by a ( blank ) between them.

Answer 5

-Very small molecules
-Very expansive space

Question 6

The ( blank ) between two particles are ( blank ). Therefore, the motion of each particles is independent of one another.

Answer 6

-force of attraction
-negligible

Question 7

Since, they have so much space between them, the molecules are in ( blank ) and move around ( blank ).

Answer 7

-constant motion
-randomly in all directions

Question 8

Due to their perpetual state of random motion, sometimes the particles will ( blank ) with each other and with the walls of the container.

Answer 8

-collide

Question 9

The collisions that occur are assumed to be ( blank ), hence, there is no change in momentum in the molecules.

Answer 9

-perfectly elastic

Question 10

The ( blank ) of the molecules is determined only by the absolute temperature of the gas.

Answer 10

-average kinetic energy
