1. 1.

   According to the kinetic molecular theory of gases, which of the following statements is correct?

   • A) The average kinetic energy of the particles is inversely proportional to the absolute temperature.
   • B) Strong attractive forces exist between particles, causing them to group together continuously.
   • C) Collisions between particles and with container walls are perfectly elastic, so total kinetic energy is conserved.
   • D) The volume of individual gas particles makes up a significant fraction of the total volume occupied by the gas.
