As it approaches the

The volume of particles are NOT negligible, esp. at
low temps & high-pressure since atoms/molecules
are close together
HYDROGEN and HELIUM are the most IDEAL gases.
Also, Diatomic molecules and nonsymmetrical

Intermolecular forces
In a solid, the molecules
are bond together as if
they are connected by
springs. The molecules
are in random vibration
and the temperature of
the solid is a measure
of the average kinetic

container.
Collisions with the walls give rise to the pressure of the gas
on the container.
When a thermometer is place in the container, the
molecules collide with it and imparting their kinetic energy
to the thermometer.
At higher temperature, the molecules move faster or with
greater kinetic energy. They give more kinetic energy to
the bulb and the mercury rises higher.
Hence the reading on the thermometer is an indication of
the kinetic energy of the gas molecules Average kinetic energy
