Solution

The correct option is A True

Gases:

  • Gas is a state of matter in which the constituent particles possess a very high kinetic energy.
  • This kinetic energy results in weak forces of attraction and largely empty space between the particles of a gas which leads to the constant random motion of the particles of a gas.
  • Due to this, they do not have a definite volume and can occupy any amount of space available to them.

Therefore, the given statement is true.
