The theory which explains the behavior of particles of matter in motion is called ______?
Correct answer: C. Kinetic Molecular Theory
- A. Bohr's Theory
- B. Dalton's Theory
- C. Kinetic Molecular Theory
- D. None
Explanation
Kinetic molecular theory explains the behaviour of matter by relating its macroscopic properties to the motion and collisions of particles. Bohr's theory concerns atomic structure and Dalton's theory concerns atomic ideas, so choosing either confuses particle motion with a different chemical theory.

About Kinetic Molecular Theory
Kinetic molecular theory explains gases as rapidly moving particles separated by large distances, with negligible volume and negligible intermolecular attraction in the ideal model. It relates temperature to average kinetic energy and explains gas pressure, Boyle's and Charles's laws, diffusion, effusion and the conditions under which real gases deviate from ideal behavior.
