Gaseous State

Question 1

Basic assumptions of the kinetic theory as applied to ideal gas

Answer 1

1.) gas consists of particles of negligible volume compared to the volume of the container it occupies
2.) gas particles exert negligible attractive forces on each other
3.) collisions between gas particles are perfectly elastic and no kinetic energy is lost on collision
4.) gas particles are in continuous random motion
5.) average KE of the gas particles is directly proportional to the absolute temperate in kelvin
