In kinetic gas theory, which one of the following is an assumption and NOT a prediction of the theory?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The mean velocity of molecules being zero is an assumption of the kinetic gas theory, necessary to simplify calculations and because the gas molecules move randomly in all directions, resulting in a net velocity of zero when averaged over a large number of molecules. Other options are predictions derived from the kinetic theory under its assumptions.
