According to the kinetic theory, the particles in a gas are considered to be small, hard spheres with an insignificant volume, and all the collisions between particles in a gas are perfectly elastic.

Are gas particles further apart than liquid particles according to the kinetic theory of matter?

yes they are and this is the reason why gases have only kinetic energy


What is kinetic theory and how is it used?

Kinetic theory is when a high number of particles such as temperature, viscosity and volume that move randomly colliding in different directions. The speed of particles has an impact on temperature and gas pressure.

gas particles have little to no attraction for each other and have a negligible (insignificant) volume that needs not to be accounted for


How is the temperature of gas related to the kinetic energy of its particles?

As the temperature of a gas increases, the kinetic energy of the particles will also increase.

What law states all matter is made of small particles that are in motion?

I think you may be talking about the Kinetic theory of Molecules, which relates the temperature of matter (relative to absolute zero) to the average velocity of the molecules which make it up. For gases, it could be the Ideal Gas Law, which assumes that the gas is small particles whizzing around. You also may be thinking of Brownian Motion, which is not a law, but a phenomenon where extremely tiny particles can be observed to be buffeted by other random motion of molecules and particles.

Is the kinetic theory of matter the same as the particle theory of matter and what are they?

No they are not the same. The kinetic theory of matter is a mathematical mechanism for thermodynamics which studies a collection of particles at once. For instance in an inert gas like Argon or N3, the kinetic theory of matter leads us to the ideal gas law PV=nRT. This theory deals with a chunk of matter at a time, assuming it to be both continuous and discrete. On the other hand, the particle theory of matter is one of the backbones to the kinetic theory. It was described by Neils Bohr to describe the vast emptiness of space in a sheet of metal. The particle theory of matter is the idea that matter consists of small particles we know as atoms but that those atoms consist of smaller particles called electrons, protons and neutrons. This theory is the study of how individual particles come together to form chunks of matter.
