Account for the following properties of gases on the basis of kinetic

1.	Account for the following properties of gases on the basis of kinetic molecular theory of gasesa) high compressibility b) gases occupy whole of the volume available to them.
Answer» a) High compressibility is due to large empty space between the gas molecules. b) Due to absence of attractive forces between the molecules, they can easily separate from one another.
