What is a gas which the particles undergo elastic collisions?

Ideal Gas


What is retained by gas particles involved in elastic collisions?

Ideal Gas.


What best describes the molecules of an ideal gas?

no volume, no intermolecular force of attraction, perfectly elastic collisions


What is the molecules of an ideal gas?

Perfectly elastic collisions, point masses (no volume of individual molecules), no intermolecular attractions.


Do gases exhibit more ideal behaviors at low or high pressures?

Higher pressures this gives more collisions which is a goal of the gases


If collisions between gas particles and between particles and container walls were not elastic collisions what would happen to a gas?

This is not an ideal gas and gas laws are are only approximately applicable.


Why is it that gases show ideal behaviour when volume occupied is large?

In a large volume the intermolecular collisions are rare.


Is ideal gas law elastic?

No, it's about gases (p,V,T, n) and not about elasics (stretch?)


What describes collisions in which there is no energy loss?

Elastic collisions do not lose energy.


Elastic and inelastic collisions?

When can you safely assume any gas is ideal?

Characteristics of an ideal gas:- an extremely low concentration- molecules are in a permanent motion- Newton laws can be applied- all collisions are elastic- molecules are spherical- molecules are not compressible
