Question

which of the following is not a postulate or assumption of the kinetic molecular theory? select the correct answer below: pressure exerted by a gas in a container results from collisions between the gas molecules and the container walls molecules composing the gas are negligibly small compared to the distances between them gas molecules exert no attractive or repulsive forces on each other or the container walls all of the above are postulates

Answer 1

The right response to the preceding question is: "Repulsive forces on each other or the container walls, both of which are postulates."

The Kinetic Molecular Theory's five fundamental tenets are as follows:

1. The molecules that make up gases are constantly moving, moving straight forward, and only changing direction when they clash with other molecules or the walls of a container.

2. The gas's constituent molecules are minuscule in comparison to the spaces between them.

3. Molecules in a gas collide with the container walls to exert pressure on the walls of the container.

4. Since gas molecules are not attracted to or repelled by the container walls, their collisions are not caused by these forces.
