Kinetic theory of gases

The kinetic theory of gases explains macroscopic gas properties—pressure, temperature, volume—by assuming that gases consist of a large number of tiny particles moving in random motion. Mastering the relationships between particle speed, collisions, and energy, and being able to apply the ideal gas law, Boyle’s, Charles’s, and Avogadro’s laws, is essential for solving exam problems and for understanding gas…
