Explain why in light of kinetic molecular theory.
Select all that apply.
Gases behave ideally when both of the following are true:
(1) The pressure exerted by the gas particles is small compared to the space between them. |
(1) The volume of the gas particles is large compared to the space between them. |
(1) The volume of the gas particles is small compared to the space between them. |
(2) The forces between the gas particles are significant. At high pressures, the number of molecules decreases, so the volume of the gas particles is much greater; and because the spacing between the particles is much smaller, the interactions become more significant |
(2) The forces between the gas particles are not significant. At high pressures, the number of molecules increases, so the volume of the gas particles is much greater; and because the spacing between the particles is much smaller, the interactions become more significant. |

At low temperatures, the molecules are not moving as fast as at higher temperatures, so that when they collide, they have a greater opportunity to interact.
