Question

which postulate of the kinetic - molecular theory applies to the particles of a liquid? they do not move freely but vibrate in a stationary position. they can be compressed, which causes a large change in volume. they have so much kinetic energy that their intermolecular forces are negligible. they have enough kinetic energy to easily slide by each other.

Explanation:

In the kinetic - molecular theory, liquid particles have enough kinetic energy to slide past one another. Solids vibrate in place. Gases have high kinetic energy with negligible intermolecular forces and are highly compressible. Liquids are not easily compressed.

Answer:

They have enough kinetic energy to easily slide by each other.
