The kinetic molecular theory of gases provides us with some valuable insights into the behaviour of gases. One correct prediction of the theory is: That gas pressure is:


  1. due to the force exerted by gas molecules as they collide with the walls of their container.
  2. due to the forces of attraction between gas particles.
  3. inversely proportional to the gas temperature.
  4. proportional to the partial pressures of the different gases that make up the gas.

A: Gas molecules exert a force on walls as they bounce off. Gas pressure may be understood as the cumulative effect of the force exerted by millions of particles, divided by the area of the walls.
