Question
which two conditions can limit the usefulness of the kinetic - molecular theory in describing gas behavior? high pressure and low temperatures high pressure and medium temperatures low pressure and low temperatures low pressure and medium temperatures
The kinetic - molecular theory assumes gas molecules have negligible volume and no intermolecular forces. At high pressure, the volume of gas molecules becomes significant relative to the container volume. At low temperatures, intermolecular forces become more prominent. These two conditions limit the theory's usefulness.
