Question 1 Report

Which of the following statements about intermolecular distances and cohesive forces between gas is correct? They are
Answer Details
The correct statement about intermolecular distances and cohesive forces between gases is "both negligible." The intermolecular distances between gas particles are very large compared to their size, so the cohesive forces between them are negligible. As a result, gases tend to expand to fill any available space and have no definite shape or volume. The kinetic energy of gas particles is much greater than the attractive forces between them, and as a result, they move freely and randomly in all directions.
