Question: Write six postulates of kinetic theory of gases?
The kinetic theory of gases is a scientific model that explains the behavior of gases based on the motion of their particles. The six postulates of the kinetic theory of gases are as follows:-
1. Gases are made up of small particles (atoms or molecules) that are in constant random motion.
2. The size of the particles is negligible compared to the distance between them.
3. Collisions between gas particles and with the walls of the container are perfectly elastic, meaning no energy is lost during the collision.
4. Gas particles are assumed to have no intermolecular forces or attractions.
5. The average kinetic energy of gas particles is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas.
6. The pressure exerted by a gas is the result of the collisions between gas particles and the walls of the container.
