Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The authentication of the given statement that
Concept introduction:
A gas is made up of atoms or molecules that move with very high speeds. The kinetic energy of gases is very high. Every molecule or atom present in a gas can have a different energy. Therefore, root mean square speed, most probable velocity, and mean velocity are calculated for a gas.
