Question

Which of the following are true of the phases?Check all that apply.A.Gases have strong intermolecular forces between the atoms or molecules.B.Liquids have more kinetic energy than gases.C.Solids have less kinetic energy than liquids or gases.D.The particles of a gas are not in a fixed location.

Answer 1

Answer

C and D

Explanation

A is NOT correct, Solids have the strongest intramolecular forces.

B is NOT correct, Gases have more kinetic energy than liquids.

C is correct, Solids have the lowest kinetic energy.

D is correct, The particles in a gas do not have any particular arrangement and there are very, very weak forces between them. So, the particles in a gas can easily move around and fill the shape of the container they are in, meaning they have no fixed shape.
