Paragraph for Questions 3 - 4
Kinetic theory of gases is a generalization offered by Maxwell, Boltzman, Clausius, etc., to explain the behavior of ideal
gases. This theory assumes that ideal gas molecules neither attract nor repel each other. Average kinetic energy of a gas
molecules is directly proportional to the absolute temperature. A gas equation called kinetic gas equation was derived on
the basis of kinetic theory.
