1.	One of the assumptions of kinetic energy theory of gases states that ''there is no force of attraction between the molecules of a gas''. How far is this statement correct ? Is it possible to liquefy an ideal gas ? Explain.
Answer» Solution :The GIVEN statement is correct only for ideal GASES. As there are no intermolecular forces of ATTRACTION AMONG the molecules of an ideal gas, it cannot be LIQUEFIED.
