Kinetic theory and temperature in gases.
Kinetic theory- gases are randomly moving particles.
-gases consist of very small particles
-constantly collide with each other and their wall containers, they bounce off each other when they collide.
-particles hardly take up any space, most of gas is empty space.
Absolute zero- 0 kelvin.
-increase temperature of something you gives it's particles more energy, they move around quickly and vibrate more(kinetic energy).
-when you decrease temperature, you reduce kinetic energy.
-coldest anything can get to is -273 °C(absolute zero-smallest kinetic energy possible to get).
Degrees celsius(°) to kelvin (K)
-273°= 0 K.
0°= 273 K.
100°= 2730° to convert degrees to kelvin just add 273 and vice versa.
Kinetic energy is proportional to temeperature…
