A gas with large molecules has friction between its molecules because they are constantly coming into contact with each other. This is a normal process which does not alter the overall composition or characterises of the gas.

How are the molecules arranged in gas?

In a gas, molecules are arranged randomly and move freely in all directions. They have high kinetic energy and collisions between molecules are elastic. The distance between molecules is large compared to the size of the molecules themselves.


What is internal friction of a gas?

Internal friction in a gas is the resistance to flow that occurs within the gas itself. It arises due to interactions between gas molecules as they move past each other, causing energy loss in the form of heat. Internal friction can affect the overall flow characteristics and behavior of a gas.


What is friction in gas state called?

Friction in a gas state is called viscosity. It is a measure of a gas's resistance to flow and is caused by the internal friction of gas molecules as they move past each other.


What is the relationship between the speed of gas molecules and the temperature of a gas?

The speed of gas molecules increases as the temperature of a gas increases.


What does gases low densities show about the distance between gas particles?

A low-density gas would have molecules that are farther apart and fewer in numbers per unit volume.


When a gas is compressed in a cylinder what does the distance between the gas molecules do?

The compression will result in a lowering in the average distance between molecules of the gas. Imagine that the cylinder is like that in an internal combustion engine, with a piston inside the cylinder. The compression is accomplished by pressing the gas into a reduced volume. The number of gas molecules remains the same. With the same number of molecules in a reduced volume, the gas molecules are pressed more closely together, lowering the average distance between the gas molecules.


Assumption of kinetic theory of gas?

The volume occupied by gas molecules is negligible when compared to volume occupied by the gas.The collisions between gas molecules-gas molecules and gas molecules-walls of the container are perfectly elastic.


What is the same and different between the spacing in molecules in solid and a gas?

In a solid, molecules are closely packed together with strong intermolecular forces, leading to a fixed shape and volume. In a gas, molecules are far apart with weak intermolecular forces, allowing them to move freely and fill the container they are in. Both phases have molecules, but differ in their spacing and behavior due to their respective intermolecular forces.


Why the shape and volume of gas is same contain?

The space between the gas molecules is very large. The forces between the gas molecules are very low (vanderwalls forces) , so molecule tends to move freely with out having influence of other molecule. The gas is compressive , Less force is required to compress gas . Finally Gas can take the Shape and volume of container it occupies.


The attraction forces between gas molecules lead to?

The attraction forces between gas molecules are very small,but it could be increased by applying high preesure and low temperature. Thus it could be concluded that attraction between gas molecules leads to its liquifaction.


Why gas have maximum freedom to move?

Because the attraction between gas molecules is negligible so its easy for gas molecules to move free


What happenes to the particels of a gas when there are fewer of them?

This is the ideal gas with no collisions between molecules..
