C
They are made up of hard spheres that vibrate quickly in stationary positions.
D
They are made up of hard spheres that are in random motion.

Explanation

Gas particles move constantly and randomly, traveling in straight lines between collisions. They are not stationary, and their motion is not always slow or along a curved path. Therefore, the true statement is that gases are made up of hard spheres in random motion.
