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.

Which statement describes effusion?

A
It occurs when a gas passes through a tiny hole.
B
It occurs when a liquid passes through a tiny hole.
C
It occurs when gas molecules disperse throughout a container.
D
It occurs when a liquid disperses throughout a container.
4

The diagram shows the movement of particles from one end of the container to the opposite end of the container.Which event is most likely occurring?

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
5

The closeness of particles of gas and their low speeds allow intermolecular forces to become important at certain pressures and temperatures. Which best describes this statement?

A
This is a limitation of the kinetic-molecular theory.
B
This is a postulate of the kinetic-molecular theory.
C
This describes ideal gas behavior using the kinetic-molecular theory.
D
This describes ideal gas behavior without the kinetic-molecular theory.
6

Which sequence represents the relationship between temperature and volume as explained by the kinetic-molecular theory?

A
higher temperature more kinetic energy more space between particles higher volume
Option A
B
higher temperature less kinetic energy less space between particles higher volume
Option B
C
higher temperature more kinetic energy less space between particles lower volume
Option C
D
higher temperature less kinetic energy more space between particles lower volume
Option D
7

Which two conditions can limit the usefulness of the kinetic-molecular theory in describing gas behavior?

A
high pressure and low temperatures
B
high pressure and medium temperatures
C
low pressure and low temperatures
D
low pressure and medium temperatures
8

According to the kinetic-molecular theory, the collision between two ideal gas particles is a result of

A
neither attraction nor repulsion.
B
repulsion from the wall of the container.
C
repulsion from other gas particles.
D
attraction between the two particles.
9

Which observation indicates that the kinetic-molecular theory has limited use for describing a certain gas?

A
Gas particles are acting like tiny, solid spheres.
B
Gas particles are obeying Newton’s laws of motion.
C
Increasing pressure is reducing the volume of the gas.
D
Increasing collisions of gas molecules will increase energy between them.
10

A graph of gas pressure versus the number of particles in a container is a straight line. Which other relationship will have a similar graph?

A
volume versus pressure, because they are also directly proportional
B
volume versus temperature, because they are also directly proportional
C
volume versus pressure, because they are also inversely proportional
D
volume versus temperature, because they are also inversely proportional
