Out of following statement :
(A) Gases are highly compressible
(B) Gases exert pressure equally in all direction
(C) Only at constant temperature (\mathrm{P} \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{~V}})
(D) Gases have much lower density than solids and liquids
The correct statement is/are :
Options
- AA, B are correct
- BA, B and D are correct
- C(\mathrm{B}, \mathrm{C}) and D are correct
- DA, B, C and D are correct
Correct answer
D. A, B, C and D are correct
Step-by-step solution
- (A) Gases are highly compressible due to the large amount of space between gas molecules.
(B) Gases exert pressure equally in all directions because of the random motion of gas molecules.
(C) The relationship (P \propto \frac{1}{V}) (Boyle's Law) is valid at constant temperature.
(D) Gases have much lower density than solids and liquids due to the large distance between their molecules.
Hence, all the statements are correct.
