  1. Here are some hints:

    a. Kinetic energy is movement... gas moves, this is stupid.

    b. Movement of real gas is unpredictable, while it may not be straight, it may also not be curved.

    c. This is just stupid!

    d. This is also just stupid!

    e. How do suns form if this doesn't happen?

    since a, c and d are simply ridiculous since gas moves (temperature), has mass, and has volume... then you left with b and e.

    Now since we just cont predict where an atom or molecule is at a specific time due to the tremendous amount of variables then b just sounds a bit unbelievable for us to know...

    so we are left with "e"!


  2. correct answer is e)

    Ideal gases are assumed not to attract each other by electric forces , a assumption which isn't true for real gases
