Solution

The kinetic-molecular theory of gases can be stated as four postulates:
A gas consists of molecules in constant random motion.
Gas molecules influence each other only by collision; they exert no other forces on each other.
All collisions between gas molecules are perfectly elastic; all kinetic energy is conserved.
