Which is NOT an assumption of matter made by the kinetic molecular theory of gases? a. The kinetic energy of particles is determined by their mass and their velocity.
b. Gas particles are widely dispersed and therefore are not affected significantly by attractive or repulsive forces.
c. Gas particles are small and take up little volume relative to the volume of the space around them.
d. When particles collide, their total energy is decreased.

Nebulae are enormous clouds in outer space. they are made mostly of hydrogen gas, helium gas, and dust. some nebulae glow brightly, while others do not. the stars that people see are huge, bright balls of glowing gas. they are made mostly of hydrogen and helium. which statement correctly describes other ways in which nebulae and stars are different? a. stars can form inside a nebula but a nebula can never be produced by any star. b. a star always has a higher density than a nebula. c. stars can never form inside a nebula but a nebula can be produced by any star. d. a nebula always has a higher density than a star.
