The kinetic theory of gases explains the behavior of gas molecules using assumptions about their motion and interactions. It states that gases consist of tiny particles in constant random motion. The theory describes pressure, temperature, and volume relationships based on ...

Kinetic theory of gases explains gas behavior using molecules in constant motion. It states that gas molecules move randomly collide elastically and obey Newton’s laws. Pressure results from collisions with container walls. Temperature is proportional to average kinetic energy. This ...
