Chapter 4, Problem 13E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The following physical phenomenon described related to one or more features of kinetic molecular theory is to be stated - Gas bubbles always rise through a liquid and become larger as they move upward.

Concept introduction:

Commonly, the atoms and molecules of a gas are in random and fast motion. Due to this rapid motion, the molecules of the gas particles are colliding with each other besides colliding with the walls of the container. These properties of the gas molecules can be best explained by ‘Kinetic theory of gases’.
