Question 7

Which of the following is not a valid assumption of the kinetic theory model for an ideal gas?

The total volume of the individual gas molecules is negligible compared to the volume of the chamber.

There are no attractive or repulsive intermolecular forces acting between the gas molecules except during collisions.

The duration of a collision of a molecule with the chamber wall is significantly greater than the time elapsed between collisions.

All collisions between the gas molecules and the chamber walls are perfectly elastic.
