• A. All the molecules of a gas are identical.
• B. Collisions between the molecules of a gas and that of the molecules with the walls of the container are perfectly elastic.
• C. The molecules do not exert appreciable force on one another except during collision.
• D. The pressure exerted by a gas is due to the collision between the molecules of the gas.

Hint:

Logic Tip: While molecules do collide with each other, it is the momentum transfer to the container walls that creates measurable pressure.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D
