Question

Which of the following is not a postulate of the kinetic molecular theory? (4 points) A) Gas particles have most of their mass concentrated in the nucleus of the atom. B) The moving particles undergo perfectly elastic collisions with the walls of the container. C) The forces of attraction and repulsion between the particles are insignificant. D) The average kinetic energy of the particles is directly proportional to the absolute temperature E) All of the above are postulates of the kinetic molecular theory

Explanation / Answer

A) Gas particles have most of their mass concentrated in the nucleus of the atom.

This is not the postulate of the kinetic theory of the gases.

because postulates of the kinetic theory did not tell anything about the mass of the gaseous particles.
