The KMT of Solids

The kinetic molecular theory of solids tell us the following characteristics:

  • particles are vibrating/swaying slowly in the same location
  • definite shape and volume

Thus, all of the given options are true except for A) particles are moving very fast. This would be true for liquid and gas particles that have high translational energies.
