Gas Phase Chemistry

Gas phase chemistry studies the behavior and reactions of gases. In this state, particles are far apart and move freely, allowing for more diverse interactions than in solids or liquids. This field examines how gases react with each other, how temperature and pressure affect these reactions, and how energy changes during these processes. Understanding gas phase chemistry is vital for various applications, including pollution control, combustion in engines, and atmospheric science, as it helps predict how gases will behave and interact in different environments.
