Kinetic Theory of Gases
The kinetic model of matter explains the behaviour of gases using a model.
The model considers gases to be made up from a large number of very small particles which are far apart, move randomly at high speeds and collide (elastically) with everything they meet.Volume
The volume of a gas is taken as the volume of the container.
The volume occupied by the particles themselves is so small it is neglected.

Temperature
The temperature of a gas depends on the kinetic energy of the gas particles.
The faster the particles move the greater their kinetic energy and the higher the temperature.
Pressure
Pressure of a gas is due to the particles colliding with each other and the walls of the container.
The more frequent and harder the collisions, the greater the pressure.

Pressure Law
Pressure and Temperature
A fixed mass of gas at a constant volume is considered.
If the temperature is increased, the particles move with greater speed and kinetic energy. Collisions are more frequent and severe, causing pressure to increase.
When the temperature is decreased, the particles move with less speed and kinetic energy. Collisions are less frequent and severe causing pressure to decrease.

Absolute Temperature
The lowest possible temperature is -273°C.
This temperature is called absolute zero.
The absolute temperature scale calls -273°C, zero kelvin (K).
Converting °C to K
add 273
Converting K to °C
subtract 273
An increase of 5°C = an increase of 5 K.
No negative temperatures on the kelvin scale.

Pressure At Absolute Zero
At absolute zero, the pressure is zero.
This is because the particles do not move at absolute zero, so there are no collisions with the container walls.
Hence, there is zero pressure.
