Options
A Gas molecules are in continuous high-velocity motion
Correct Answer
B Gases exert pressure equally in all directions against container walls
C Gases have exceptionally high densities compared to corresponding liquids
D Gases are easily compressed due to large intermolecular distances
Correct Answer
