D is the answer for this. Solid molecules are more compact than liquid.
If you find my answer helpful, please brainliest me!
The molecules that make up a plastic two-liter bottle are closer together than the molecules of soda that they contain.
Kinetic theory of gases presumes that collision between the molecules to be perfectly elastic because a. the molecules are rigid b. the molecules are tiny c. the temperature remains constant irrespective of collision d. collision will not split the molecules
According to the question
The molecules that make up a plastic two-liter bottle
A) are in constant, rapid, random motion.
This statement is false as Unlike solid and liquid state, molecules in gaseous state show random motion. That is the reason, gases take the shape of container and spread quickly in space. The random motion of molecules in the gaseous state is due to high kinetic energy in molecules. They have weak intermolecular interactions between them.
B> have a volume of more than two liters if melted
This statement is false as the hollow plastic bottle when melted can not have volume more than two because plastic expand it self ,so do not need plastic of 2 liters to make 2 liter bottle
C >expand to take the shape of wherever the bottle is placed.
This statement is false as plastic bottle is not gonna expand to change shape as it is solid and its molecules are tightly bonded
D> are closer together than the molecules of soda that they contain.
This statement is true as soda is liquid and plastic bottle is solid and molecules of solid are closer than any liquid
Hence, The molecules that make up a plastic two-liter bottle are closer together than the molecules of soda that they contain.
