Kinetic molecular theory explains the behavior of gases based on the idea that they are composed of many particles in constant, random motion. This motion results in collisions between particles and with the walls of their container, which leads to pressure. The theory also emphasizes that temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of these particles. Overall, it provides a framework for understanding gas properties and behaviors, such as diffusion and effusion.
