question
What is the kenetic theory of gases?
answer

Theory that a gas contains small particles in constant random motion that have no attractive or repulsive forces between them or the walls of the container, are very far apart from each other with a very small negligible total volume compared to the container it occupys,

and has an average kinetic energy proportional to absolute temperature

question
How does kinetic molecular theory of gases explain why gases have low density?
answer
since gases are spread out and have little mass per unit of volume causes them to have a low density
question

answer
since total gas volume is small and the particles are far apart, the container volume can be reduced considerably and still leave space between the gas particles
question
How does kinetic molecular theory of gases explain why gases have no definite shape or volume?
answer
because gases are in constant, random motion and therefore reach all parts of any container they are in

question
How does the Kinetic Moleculat Theory of Gases explain why gases never settle?

since there is no attraction or repulsion between gas particles no net energy is lost when particles come in contact with each other or the container. this also explains why the travel in straight lines between collisions.
