Give the postulates of kinetic theory of matter
Answers
Answer:
The main postulates of kinetic theory of matter are : (i) Matter consists of small particles called molecules. (ii) The molecules are always in random motion. (iii) The molecules attract one another with a force which decreases as the distance between them increases.
Explanation:
please mark brilliant
Answer:
1) The gaseous particles are in constant random motion.
2) The total volume of the particle is negligible and gas particles are seen far apart from one another.
3) The particle exerts no force on each other.
4) The collisions between particles are completely elastic.
5) The average kinetic energy of the particle is proportional to temperature in the kelvin scale.
6) Gaseous particles move in a straight line until they collide with the walls of the container or another gas particle.
Explanation:
The kinetic theory of matter describes the ideal gas behavior at the particle level. Just as many gas molecules are traveling in one direction as in any other, hence they are said to move in constant random motion. The collisions of gas particles with the walls of the container are responsible for pressure. The collisions are completely elastic since the molecules do not lose any kinetic energy during the collision.
