Exploring the Kinetic Molecular Theory

What does the kinetic molecular theory state about matter?

• Matter is made up of particles.

• Matter is made up of energy.

• Matter is made up of light.

• Matter is made up of waves.

What happens to the motion of particles when the temperature increases?

• The motion decreases.

• The motion remains the same.

• The motion increases.

• The motion stops.

Which state of matter has a definite shape and volume?

• Solid

• Gas

• Liquid

• Plasma

What causes the vibrating motion in solids?

• Electrical forces

• Magnetic forces

• Intermolecular forces

• Gravitational forces

How do liquids behave on a molecular level?

• They move randomly.

• They move in a fixed pattern.

• They are stationary.

• They move in a circular motion.

What happens to the shape of a liquid when placed in a container?

• It takes the shape of the container.

• It retains its original shape.

• It solidifies.

• It evaporates immediately.

What is a unique property of gases compared to solids and liquids?

• They do not move.

• They have a definite volume.

• They have a definite shape.

• They have an indefinite shape and volume.

How do gas molecules behave in a container?

• They stay at the bottom.

• They move to the top.

• They spread out evenly.

• They form a solid.

What is the relationship between kinetic energy and motion?

• More kinetic energy means less motion.

• More kinetic energy means more motion.

• Kinetic energy does not affect motion.

• Kinetic energy stops motion.

Why do germs spread everywhere when you sneeze?

• Because of no energy in the molecules.

• Because of low energy in the molecules.

• Because of high energy in the molecules.

• Because of medium energy in the molecules.
