9. Kinetic Theory Thermodynamics – empirical description of matter based on experimental observations (macroscopic) All phenomena described in thermodynamics can be explained by considering the behaviours of
the molecules at microscopic scale This can be done by 2 approaches :
(1) Consider motion of molecules based on law of mechanics - Kinetic theory
(2) Consider the probability of the behaviour of group of large number of molecules - Statistical thermodynamic From kinetic theory → equation of state, internal energy, specific heat Statistical thermodynamic → entropy At microscopic scale, some "classical" law of physics may not be obeyed ⇒ Quantum Mechanical approach
9.1 Basic assumptions of kinetic theory (1) A macroscopic volume of a gas contains a very large number of molecules 1 mole : 6.03 × 1023 molecules (Avogradro number) (2) The distance between any two molecules in the gas is much larger than their individual size (3) Each molecule will not experience any force exerted by other molecules except when a
collision occurs. (4) The molecules are assumed to be hard spheres and the collisions between the molecules are
perfectly elastic → conservation of momentum and energy (5) The molecules are distributed uniformly inside the volume of the gas
- number density of the molecules VNn = and
VNn
∆∆
= for any element ∆V
(6) The directions of the motion of molecules are isotropic (all directions are equally probable)
Assumption (6) may lead us to the following : If N : total number of possible direction Each of these direction can be represented by a point on the surface of a sphere with surface area of 4 π r2
the number of directions between (r, θ , φ ) and (r, θ+dθ , φ+dφ ) is given by

energy into the internal energy of the particles

9.5 van der Waals equation of state Real gas effect – 2 possible corrections to ideal gas assumption Correction 1: Inside volume V, if the space occupied by all the other particles is b, then the space that can be
occupied by the particle is (V – b). Molecule – hard sphere of diameter d
Closest distance between 2 molecules is d
Space occupied by 2 molecules can be taken to be 3

Correction 2 : Effect of intermolecular force Force of attraction between molecules (gravitational force) Inside the gas, the forces experienced by a molecule from all direction are the same ⇒ there is no net force in any direction However, this is not true for molecules near to the boundary (such as the wall of the container) These molecules will collide at the wall to produce the effect of “pressure” But because of the attractive force due to the rest of the molecules on these molecules, the
pressure produced by these collisions will be reduced
The reduction in the pressure is proportional to 222

9.6 Collision between particles
VNn = : number of particles per unit volume
d : diameter of particle Number of particles that may collide with a particle after moving
through unit distance : 2dnπ πd 2 – is used as a measure of the probability of collision ( Unit - area : cm2 ) nπd 2 – number of collision per unit distance 1/(nπd 2) – distance between two consecutive collision (mean free path) Write σ = πd 2, which is called the cross-section of collision Mean free path (mfp), λ = 1/(nσ) The probability for a particle to travel distance x without any collision: λ/x

9.7 Viscosity Consider gas or liquid in between 2 plates The top plate is moving to the right by force F Imagine that the gas or liquid is divided into thin sheet The sheet next to the top plate will be moving almost at the same velocity as the top plate, but the sheets further down will be moving with lower velocities The bottom plate expereiences the same force F but in opposite direction Particles are moving randomly (thermal) ⇒ possibility of particles jumping from one sheet to another This results in the transfer of momentum between sheets, hence force exerted on each other
