Thermodynamics and Kinetic Theory · Thermodynamics

Kinetic Theory of Gases

Linking microscopic molecular motion to macroscopic properties like pressure and temperature.

Key Questions

  1. 1How does the root mean square speed of molecules relate to the temperature of a gas?
  2. 2What variables affect the mean free path of a molecule in a high pressure gas?
  3. 3How can we derive the ideal gas law from the assumptions of kinetic theory?
