Which of the following statements is FALSE?
A) Real gases do not fit the assumptions of kinetic molecular theory.
B) The assumptions of kinetic molecular theory break down at high pressures.
C) The assumptions of kinetic molecular theory break down at high temperatures.
D) The assumptions of kinetic molecular theory break down at low temperatures.
E) The van der Waals equation predicts gas properties under nonideal conditions.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The assumptions of kinetic molecular theory generally hold true at high temperatures, as increased kinetic energy allows gas particles to overcome intermolecular forces, making them behave more ideally.
