Collisions between molecules in the kinetic theory of ideal gases are assumed to be what?
APartly inelastic
BPerfectly elastic
CFully absorbing
DPerfectly inelastic
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Perfectly elastic
Elastic collisions conserve kinetic energy, so the gas does not lose energy to its own collisions.
