Question

Put (✓) mark if the statement describes the property of solid, liquid, and gas based on the kinetic molecular theory and (X) mark if it does not. 

1. Molecules in the solid phase have the least amount of energy, while gas particles have the greatest amount of energy

2. Gases are almost incompressible and possess definite shape and volume.

3. There are spaces between particles of matter. The average amount of empty space between molecules gets progressively larger as a sample of matter moves from the solid to the liquid and the gas phases.

4. The Kinetic energy of the solids is greater than the attractive force between them, thus they are much fartehr apart and move freely of each other.

5. In a liquid, the attractive forces keep the particles together tighly enough so that the particles do not move past each other.
