Chapter 10:

Kinetic Molecular Theory ~ idea that particles of matter always in motion

5 principles:

  1. lots of small, far apart particles
  2. collisions between particles and walls all elastic (no net energy loss)
  3. particles in constant, random, rapid motion
  4. no attraction or repulsion
  5. kinetic energy = ½ mass * velocity ²
