(REVIEW) Gas as a state of matter Gases assume the volume of the container Gases assume the shape of the container Gases will mix evenly and completely when confined to the same container Gases have much lower densities than liquids and solids Gases undergo Diffusion and Effusion Considered the compressible state of matter
Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases The average Kinetic Energy (KE) of the molecules is proportional to the temperature of the gas in Kelvin. Any two gases at the same temperature will have the same average kinetic energy. R = universal gas constant = 8.314 J/mol-K T = temperature in Kelvin MM = molar mass (in kg/mol)
