Explanation:

In gases the molecules are held together by weak Vander waal forces. Due to this they have more kinetic energy and they tend to diffuse at a faster rate because of more number of collisions between the molecules.

That is why, its molecules readily spread into the atmosphere as compared to the molecules of solids and liquids. Also, when molecules of a gas collide with the walls of a container then they tend to come back at their initial position for a fraction of second or more.

Hence, gas collisions are elastic in nature.

According to Graham's law, rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of molar mass of the gas. Hence, more is the molecular weight of gas less likely it is able to diffuse into the surroundings.

       \text{Rate of diffusion} \propto \sqrt{\frac{1}{M}}

Thus, we can conclude that following apply to gases.

  • Gas collisions are elastic.
  • Gases mix faster than solids or liquids.
  • Gases with larger molecular weights diffuse slower than gases with lower molecular weights.

which of the following pairs of elements could react to form an ionic compound? A. potassium and calcium B. sulfur and oxygen C.
Grace [21]
The correct option is FLUORINE AND COPPER.
An ionic compound is usually formed by the combination of a metal and a non metal, the metal usually act as an electron donor while the non metal act as an electron acceptor. Thus, in ionic compounds, there is total transfer of electrons from the metal to the non metal. In the question given here, copper is the metal while the fluorine is the non metal.<span />
