:-
It explains the behavior and laws of gases. A gas is made up of a large number of molecules in motion. So, theory is called Kinetic Molecular Theory.
_________________________________
:-
→ Gas consists of a large number of extremely small and discrete particles or molecules, dispersed through out the container.
→ Actual volume of gas molecules is negligible as compared to the volume of container.
→ There is no loss of energy during the collision. So, collision are perfectly elastic.
→ Gas molecules are in constant random motion with high velocities, they collide with each other and form zig-zag path.
→ Pressure of gas is due to the collision of gas molecules on the walls of container.
→ Molecules don't have force of attraction or repulsion. So, they can move freely and independent of each other.
→ Average kinetic energy of gas molecules is directly proportional to the temperature in Kelvin.
Kinetic Gas Equation :-
PV = ⅓ mNu²
Here,
P = Pressure of Gas.
V = Volume of Gas.
m = mass of Gas.
N = Number of molecules in u.
u = Root Mean Square Velocity (R.M.S)
