Q: In the kinetic theory of gases, the pressure exerted by a gas is due to:
Solution:
The pressure exerted by a gas is due to the collisions of gas molecules with the walls of the container.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that gases are made up of tiny particles called molecules.
Step 2: Know that these gas molecules are constantly moving in all directions.
Step 3: Realize that when these moving molecules hit the walls of their container, they exert a force on the walls.
Step 4: Understand that this force from the collisions of the molecules with the walls creates pressure.
Step 5: Conclude that the more frequent and forceful the collisions, the higher the pressure exerted by the gas.
