1 The Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Gases
Section 1 The Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Matter Chapter 10 The Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Gases Ideal gas - hypothetical gas that perfectly fits all the assumptions of the kinetic-molecular theory.

2 The Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Gases
Section 1 The Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Matter Chapter 10 The Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Gases Gases consist of large numbers of tiny particles that are far apart relative to their size. Collisions between gas particles and between particles and container walls are elastic collisions. Elastic collision - no net loss of total kinetic energy Gas particles are in continuous, rapid, random motion.

3 The Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Gases
Section 1 The Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Matter Chapter 10 The Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Gases There are no forces of attraction between gas particles. The temperature of a gas depends on the average kinetic energy of the particles of the gas.

4 The Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Gases
Section 1 The Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Matter Chapter 10 The Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Gases All gases at the same temperature have the same average kinetic energy. At the same temperature, lighter gas particles, have higher average speeds than do heavier gas particles. Many gases behave nearly ideally if pressure is not very high and temperature is not very low.

5 Chapter 10 Nature of Gases Expansion Fluidity Low Density
Section 1 The Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Matter Chapter 10 Nature of Gases Expansion Fluidity Low Density Compressibility Diffusion Effusion

6 Deviations of Real Gases from Ideal Behavior
Section 1 The Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Matter Chapter 10 Deviations of Real Gases from Ideal Behavior Real gas - does not behave completely according to the assumptions of the kinetic-molecular theory. The more polar the molecules of a gas are, the more the gas will deviate from ideal gas behavior.
