Chapter 5 :States of Matter
•Matter
Matter is defined as anything that has mass and occupies space. There are five state of matter :
1)Solid
2)Liquid
3)Gas 4)Plasma 5)Bose-Einstein
What is kinetic Theory of Gases ? Kinetic theory of gases to a theoretical model that describes the molecular composition of the gas in terms of a large number of submicroscopic particles which Include atom and molecules further, the theory exp-lains that gas pressure arises due to particles colliding with each other and the wall of container , Kinetic theory of gases also defines properties such as temperature, Viscosity, , and thermal conductivity all these properties are related to the microscopic phenomenon.
The significance of the theory is that it help in developing a correlation between the macroscopic an the microscopic Phenomenon. In simple terms the kinetic Theory of gases also helps us study the action of the molecules. Generally, the molecules of gases are always in motion and they collide each other and wall of containers.
