Q. Apply Kinetic Molecular Theory to Liquids?

Ans.

The Kinetic Molecular Theory (KMT) states that the particles of liquids are in constant random motion. Their motion, however, is not as independent as that of gas particles. On the other hand, the particles of a liquid are not as rigidly fixed as the particles of a solid.

Particles in a liquid are almost as close together as the particles in a solid. Liquids, therefore, tend to be incompressible and have a fairly high density.

Liquids have a definite volume since the forces of attraction between the particles are higher than that of a gas.

Liquids do not have a definite shape since the forces of attraction between the particles are not as strong as that of a solid.
