Random motion is a property of all particles. Brownian motion, the random redistribution of particles due to individual random motion, is possible in fluids, including gasses, liquids, and plasmas, but not in solids- the structure of solids prevents individual particles from moving out of place until they gain enough energy for their small random movements to break free.
The key feature of gasses relating to motion is that the particles have an appreciable amount of space between them and can travel many times farther before encountering another gas particle than is possible in a liquid. This allows the rapid diffusion of different gasses into a homogeneous mixture.

What are molecules in a gas?
In random motion.
Does a random motion of a gas causes gas to expand until the it fills the container?
Yes
What Diffusion?
the mixing of gas molecules due to random motion-apex
What what's diffusion?
the mixing of gas molecules due to random motion-apex
What do you call the gradual mixing to two gases due to the spontaneous random motion of the gas particles?
diffusion
What are molecules in a gas?
In random motion.
Are the molecules in a gas in constant motion?
Yes, the molecules of a gas are constantly in a random motion if the gas temperature is more than 0 degree kelvin. This random motion determines the average kinetic energy of the molecules which is equal to the temperature of the gas. I hope this answers your question.
The kinetic molecular theory assumes that the particles of an ideal gas?
are in random, constant, straight-line motion
Does a random motion of a gas causes gas to expand until the it fills the container?
Yes
What Diffusion?
the mixing of gas molecules due to random motion-apex
What. is diffusion?
the mixing of gas molecules due to random motion-apex
What is the motion of particle in gas?
They move in a straight line until they hit something and bounce off. Molecules in a gas show random rectilinear motion. This is called Brownian motion
What what's diffusion?
the mixing of gas molecules due to random motion-apex
What is random molecular motion?
It is the unpredictable direction of motion, of which all directions have an equal probability.
How gas spreads?
The random motion of the gas molecules allows them to diffuse throughout the space available to them.
What is the behaviour of gas molecules based on the kinetic theory?
Gas molecules are in continuous random motion and they collide with each other.
What type of energy is associated with random motion of particles in a sample of gas?
thermal energy or kenetic energy
