The Gaseous State (866 words) |
 | Gases consist of small molecules that are in constant random motion. |
| The rates of diffusion (mixing) of two gases under identical conditions is inversely proportional to the square root of their molar masses. |
| Equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules. |

Gas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (358 words) |
| Like liquids and plasmas, gases are fluids: they have the ability to flow and do not tend to return to their former configuration after deformation, although they do have viscosity. |
| The kinetic energy per molecule in a gas is the second greatest of the states of matter (after plasma). |
| A gas that is ionized (or even partially ionized) becomes a plasma, the fourth state of matter because its properties are quite different to solids, liquids and gases. |
