Question

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

Answer 1

-ideal gas: a hypothetical gas whose molecules exhibit no interaction and undergo elastic collision with each other and the walls of the container
-macroscopic properties: properties that can be visualized or measured by the naked eye; examples include pressure, temperature, and volume

Answer 2

Answer:

High temperatures and low pressures

Explanation:

Hello,

Kinetic-molecular theory helps us to understand how a gas behaves in the light of its intramolecular motion and intermolecular forces, nonetheless, this theory has been idealized for us to have a slightly approach to the real gas behavior. Thus, the carried out experimentation backing up this theory were done at high temperatures and low pressures as long as the gas particles don't interact (crash) to each other but just crash against the container walls and the average kinetic energy is proportional to the temperature in kelvins.

Best regards.
