Veda Bites are swipeable micro-lessons — each one teaches exactly one
idea. Here's a taste from this kit; the app has the full deck.
💡 Key Idea
What Makes a Gas a Gas
No shape, no fixed volume — just fill.
A gas has no fixed shape and no fixed volume. Its particles are far apart and move freely, so a gas expands to fill whatever container it is placed in.
↳ Weak forces + free, fast particles = a gas fills any container completely.
📖 Definition
The Four Measurable Properties of a Gas
Four numbers describe any gas.
↳ P, V, T, and n are the four variables that fully describe a gas sample.
💡 Key Idea
Kinetic Molecular Theory: Why Gases Behave This Way
Tiny fast particles explain everything.
The kinetic molecular theory explains gas behaviour by treating a gas as a large number of tiny particles in constant random motion.
↳ Gas pressure comes from countless particle collisions with the container walls.
