Chemical Equilibria and Reactivity

This lecture covers the kinetic model of gases, based on four assumptions: particles in constant random motion, infinitesimally small size, linear motion until elastic collision, and no interactions except collisions. It explains the relationship between temperature and average particle speed, as well as the distribution of speeds in a gas according to Maxwell's law. The lecture also delves into the kinetic energy of gas particles and the concept of collisions in gas properties.
