Question

Kinetic Energy : The molecules of gases
collide among themselves and transfer the energy
to the next molecules. This energy is mostly in
the form of kinetic energy





What is the meaning of collide..and explain it ehole​

Answer 1

Gases are composed of molecules that are in continuous motion, travelling in straight lines and changing direction only when they collide with other molecules or with the walls of a container.

The molecules composing the gas are negligibly small compared to the distances between them.

The pressure exerted by a gas in a container results from collisions between the gas molecules and the container walls.

Gas molecules exert no attractive or repulsive forces on each other or the container walls; therefore, their collisions are elastic (do not involve a loss of energy).

The average kinetic energy of the gas molecules is proportional to the kelvin temperature of the gas.
