Definition: Kinetic Energy of an Ideal Gas

The energy possessed purely by the motion of molecules in an ideal gas, where the molecules are non-interacting and hence there is no potential energy term, making the internal energy of the gas entirely kinetic in nature, is called the kinetic energy (internal energy) of an ideal gas.

Maharashtra State Board: Class 11

Definition: Absolute Zero

The certain minimum value of temperature below which an object cannot be cooled, since the average kinetic energy of molecules has a minimum possible value of zero at this point, is called absolute zero.

Maharashtra State Board: Class 11

Law: Average Kinetic Energy and Temperature

The average energy per molecule of an ideal gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature T of the gas:

Eavg ∝ T
