25. Physics 207: Lecture 24, Pg 24 Ch. 18, Macro-micro connection Molecular Speeds and Collisions A real gas consists of a vast number of molecules, each moving randomly and undergoing millions of collisions every second. Despite the apparent chaos, averages, such as the average number of molecules in the speed range 600 to 700 m/s, have precise, predictable values. The “micro/macro” connection is built on the idea that the macroscopic properties of a system, such as temperature or pressure, are related to the average behavior of the atoms and molecules.
