According to the kinetic theory of gases, between two successive collisions, a gas molecule travels

Options

  1. AIn a circular path
  2. BIn a wavy path
  3. CIn a straight line path
  4. DWith an accelerated velocity

Correct answer

C. In a straight line path

Step-by-step solution

According to kinetic theory, the gas molecules are in a state of constant rapid motion in all possible directions colliding in a random manner with one another and with the walls of the container and between two successive collisions, molecules travel in a straight line path but show haphazard motion due to collisions.
