Kinetic Theory

Kinetic Theory explains the behavior of gases by describing how their particles—molecules and atoms—move and collide. It connects macroscopic properties like temperature and pressure to microscopic actions. In thermodynamics, it helps us understand concepts such as energy, heat transfer, and equilibrium. Statistical mechanics further enhances this by using statistics to predict how large numbers of particles behave based on their individual motions. Overall, Kinetic Theory provides a molecular perspective on thermodynamic phenomena, bridging the microscopic world of particles with the macroscopic world we experience.
