Question

Write the two wrong assumptions of the kinetic molecular theory of gases which led to the failure of the ideal gas law.

Answer 1

Two wrong assumptions of the kinetic theory of gases were:

(a) The molecules which are considered as point masses have negligible volume as compared to the total volume of the gas. 

(b) It is assumed that there is no inter-molecular forces between the molecules. They move independently.
