Let us evaluate the given assumptions according to the kinetic theory for an ideal gas.

a.
The motion of one particle is unaffected by other particles unless the particles collide.
TRUE. The particles are in random motion unless they collide.

b.
The forces of attraction among particles keep the particles close together.
FALSE. No forces act between particles except during collision.

c.
Under ordinary conditions, forces of attraction between particles can be ignored.
TRUE. 

Answer: Statement b is false because it is not an assumption.

The smallness of the critical angle θc for diamond means that light is easily "trapped" within a diamond and eventually emerges
hoa [83]

Answer:

26.6°

Explanation:

refractive index of diamond, n = 2.23

When a ray of light passes from denser medium to the rarer medium and refracts at an angle of 90 degree from the normal of the surface, such angle of incidence in the denser medium is called the critical angle.

By the Snell's law

\frac{Sini}{Sin r }= n

For critical angle, angle of incidence is critical angle, i = θc and angle of refraction, r = 90

So,

Sin θc / Sin 90 = 1 / 2.23

Sin θc = 0.448

θc = 26.6°

Thus, the critical angle is 26.6°.

Two homogeneous bodies of the same volume
lord [1]

Answer:

No, it is not necessary for them to have same mass.

Explanation:

Let both bodies have a density d1 and d2 respectively.

Since their volumes are equal V1 = V2

we know that, https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7Bmass%7D%7Bvolume%7D

Hence, d1 =  and d2 =    

Taking the ratio of densities,we get

This implies that unless the bodies have same densities, the mass of the two bodies will not be same.
