Which of the following statements are true?

I. On heating the kinetic energy of particles in solids does not change because they have a fixed position.

II. Sublimation is the change of gaseous state directly to solid state without going through liquid state and vice versa.

0.27 g of a long chain fatty acid was dissolved in 100 cm3 of hexane. 10 mL  of this solution was added dropwise to the surface of water in a round watch glass. Hexane evaporates and a monolayer is formed. The distance from edge to centre of the watch glass is 10 cm . What is the height of the monolayer?
[Density of fatty acid =0.9 g cm-3;π=3]
