STATE OF MATTER, KINETIC THEORY ,

HERE I AM GOING TO SHARE STATES OF MATTER

WHAT IS MATTER?

Matter is defined as anything which occupies space and has mass is called matter 

1# GAS state of matter

A gas has no shape of it`s own rather it takes the shape of it`s container , it has no definte volume but can be compressed or squeezed into smaller volume , a gas diffuses that is it distributes itself through out the vessels

 

2#LIQUID state of matter

A liquid has no definite shape it takes the shape of it`s container , however occupies a definite volume of it`s own although it is not abslutely in compressible , it is compressed to negligible extent even by high pressures.

3# SOLID state of matter 

A soild possesses both definite shape and definite volume , like a liquid it is not compressed or squeezed appreciably by high pressure 

KINETIC THEORY 

The kinetic theory is so named because it deals with that property of particles which is so crucial in understanding, the three states of matter namely the motion of the particles because the particles are in constant motion they possess kinetic energy which tends to keep the particular well spaced out in any substance thus in terms of kinetic theory .

1: The gaseous state is the one in which the molecules are widely separated from one another but having the negligible volume the gases are easy to compress due to large empty spaces 

2: The gas molecules are in continuous motion traveling in straight paths between collisions but in random directions, the average distance between collisions is the mean free path.

3: The molecules collide with the one another and with the walls of the containers but these collisions are perfectly elastic (result in no loss of energy)kinetic theory explains all physical properties of matter so to understand properties we should study kinetic theory
