CHM 103 K inetic Molecu lar
Theor y Qu estions and answ er s
w ith accu r ate r ationales(PASSED)
Which is NOT part of the Kinetic Molecular Theory?
- The motion of the atomic particles increases as the surrounding temperature
increases
- At the same temperature, smaller particles move more quickly than larger
particles
- The motion of atomic particles decreases as the surrounding temperature
increases
-Pressure of a gas is a measure of the number of hits the gas molecules have on its
container - answer The motion of atomic particles decreases as the surrounding
temperature increases
Which state of matter has the least spacing between particles? - answer solid
Suppose you have two large beakers each containing 1 liter of water at room
temperature. Now pretend that you add the 1 drop of ink A to the first beaker and
1 drop of ink B to the second beaker. Now if ink A is twice as large a molecule as
ink B, which ink will disperse fulling first, A or B? - answer
Coconut oil is a solid at room temperature, but it will melt to a clear oil at body
temperature. How does this happen? - answer Heating the solid increases the
molecular motion of the coconut oil molecules which overcomes enough of the
