Question illustration
A
diffusion because particles move from regions of high concentration to regions of low concentration
B
diffusion because particles move from regions of low concentration to regions of high concentration
C
effusion because there is a movement of a gas through a small opening into a larger volume
D
effusion because there is a movement of a gas through a large opening into a smaller volume

Which statement best describes the collisions of gas particles according to the kinetic-molecular theory?

A
When particles pass close enough to one another, their attractions pull them together, and then they bounce apart with no gain or loss of energy.
B
As particles travel in straight lines, their paths sometimes meet, and then they bounce apart with no gain or loss of energy.
C
When particles pass close enough to one another, their attractions pull them together, and then they bounce apart with a loss of energy.
D
As particles travel in straight lines, their paths sometimes meet, and then they bounce apart with a loss of energy.
