Postulates of the Kinetic Theory of Gases.
1 The molecules in a gas are small and very far apart. Most of the volume which a gas occupies is empty space.
2 Gas molecules are in constant random motion. Just as many molecules are moving in one direction as in any other.
3 Molecules can collide with each other and with the walls of the container. Collisions with the walls account for the pressure of the gas.
4 When collisions occur, the molecules lose no kinetic energy; that is, the collisions are said to be perfectly elastic. The total kinetic energy of all the molecules remains constant unless there is some outside interference with the
5 The molecules exert no attractive or repulsive forces on one another except during the process of collision. Between collisions, they move in straight lines.

KINETIC THEORY OF GASES:
It is given by bernoulli in 1738 and developed by Clausius Maxwell .
1) The dimensions of the particles are negligible small compared to the average distance between them
2) The molecules of the gases are in constant random Rapid and chatting motion the measure gas pressure is due to the collision of the gas molecules with the surface of the containing vessel .
3) All collisions are perfectly elastic and the molecules have no interactions apart from the collisions.
4) The average kinetic energy of the molecules is related to the temperature of the gas
5) The greater the temperature the greater the kinetic energy .
