MCQ
The molecular kinetic energy of a liquid is:
  • A
    More than molecular kinetic energy of solids.
  • B
    More than molecular kinetic energy of gases.
  • C
    Less than molecular kinetic energy of solids.
  • D
    Dependent on the matter.

Answer

  1. More than molecular kinetic energy of solids.

Explanation:

The inter-molecular attractions in liquids are lesser compared to solids. As, liquids can move freely due to less inter molecular attraction they have more molecular kinetic energy compared to solids.
