What is the kenetic theory of gases? |
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 |

since gases are spread out and have little mass per unit of volume causes them to have a low density |
How does kinetic molecular theory of gases explain why gases are highly compressible? |
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 |
How does kinetic molecular theory of gases explain why gases have no definite shape or volume? |
because gases are in constant, random motion and therefore reach all parts of any container they are in |

since gas particles are in constant,random motion. if the container is opened the gas particles move out into the surrondings |

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. |
