Statement 1: For an ideal gas, the entire volume of the container is available for the free motion of the molecules.

Statement 2: The actual volume of ideal-gas molecules is negligible compared with the volume of the container.

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

Statement I is correct for an ideal gas (free volume = container volume). Statement II is the kinetic-theory postulate that the molecules' own volume is negligible — correct. Because the molecules occupy essentially no space, the whole container volume is available to them: II explains I. Ans: (a).
