The correct answer is C: A and C.According to the kinetic molecular theory:A. Gas particles are in constant, random motion. This statement is true as it describes one of the fundamental aspects of gas behavior according to the theory.B. The average kinetic energy of a gas is proportional to the pressure exerted by the gas. This statement is not accurate. The average kinetic energy of gas particles is actually proportional to the temperature of the gas, not the pressure.C. The volume of the individual gas particles is negligible compared to the volume of the container. This statement is true, as the theory assumes that the size of the gas particles is so small compared to the distances between them that their volume can be ignored.
