Q. Assertion In gases, the molecules move faster and long distances without colliding.
Reason In gases, the interatomic forces are negligible.

Kinetic Theory

Solution:

The interatomic forces are negligible in gases. Therefore in gases, the molecules are free and move long distances without colliding, with faster speed. Therefore, Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
