Step-by-step reasoning:

  • Kinetic energy of particles increases from solid to gas → True, because heating from solid → liquid → gas increases particle motion and energy.
  • Random motion of particles increases from liquid to gas → True, since gases have more freedom of movement than liquids.
  • Random motion of particles increases from gas to solidFalse, because solids have the least random motion (particles vibrate in fixed positions), while gases have the most random motion.
  • Orderliness of particles increases from gas to liquid → True, because gases are highly disordered, while liquids have more short-range order.

Final Answer: The property that is NOT peculiar to matter is:
Random motion of particles increases from gas to solid.
