The kinetic theory of gases is a scientific theory that explains the behavior of gases at the molecular level. It provides a framework for understanding how gases behave in terms of the motion and interactions of individual gas molecules. Here are the key points of the kinetic theory of gases: 1. **Molecular Composition:** Gases consist of a large number of molecules that are in constant random motion. These molecules are typically far apart relative to their sizes, leading to low density.
