answered-by-expert Expert Answer

kinetic theory of gases,tells that the particles in a gas are considered to move freely and rapidly along straight lines till they collide with one another or with the walls of the container. Pressure of the gas is due to the impacts of the particles on the walls of the contained.

Kinetic theory of matter tells that matter is considered to be made of small particles in random motion.

What is meant by the term ' Molar specific heat ' of a gas?  The molar specific heat of hydrogen in the temperature range of about 250 K to 750 K is about (5/2) R.  At lower temperatures the value of molar specific heat of hydrogen decreases to the value typical of monoatomic gases (3/2) R while at higher temperatures, it tends to the value (7/2) R.  Explain.
