According to the Kinetic Theory of matter:
A. The gas particles are not held together by strong forces. In gases, the particles are in constant, random motion and only interact through occasional collisions. The forces between gas particles are considered negligible compared to those in solids or liquids.
B. There are indeed large empty spaces between gas particles. Gas particles are far apart compared to the size of the particles themselves, allowing for compressibility and expansion to fill the container they are in.
C. The kinetic energy of the particles does increase with rising temperature. As temperature increases, the average kinetic energy of the particles increases as well, leading to faster motion and more collisions.
D. The solid particles are packed very closely together in a fixed orderly arrangement. Solids have particles that are closely packed in a fixed, repeating pattern, which gives solids their definite shape and volume.
Therefore, the false statement according to the Kinetic Theory of matter is:
A. The gas particles are held together by strong forces.
