Question

which of the following best describe gas particles? select all that apply a moving randomly b collide into each other c move slow d high kinetic energy e moving orderly

Explanation:

• Option a: According to the kinetic molecular theory of gases, gas particles move randomly in all directions.
• Option b: Gas particles are in constant motion and frequently collide with each other and the walls of the container.
• Option c: Gas particles have high kinetic energy and thus move rapidly, not slowly. So this is incorrect.
• Option d: Gas particles have high kinetic energy due to their rapid, random motion.
• Option e: Gas particles do not move in an orderly fashion; their motion is random. So this is incorrect.

Answer:

a. moving randomly, b. collide into each other, d. high kinetic energy
