State the definition of an ideal gas.
State what the symbol $\langle c^{2} \rangle$ means.
A cylinder contains a fixed mass of gas at a temperature of $120\,^{\circ}\text{C}$. The gas volume is $6.8 \times 10^{-3}\,\text{m}^{3}$ when the pressure is $2.4 \times 10^{5}\,\text{Pa}$. Assuming ideal-gas behaviour, show that the number of atoms of gas in the cylinder is $3.0 \times 10^{23}$.
Each gas atom, treated as a sphere, has a radius of $3.2 \times 10^{-11}\,\text{m}$. Use the answer in (i) to estimate the true volume occupied by the gas atoms.
One assumption in the kinetic theory of gases concerns the volume of the atoms. State this assumption. Explain whether your answer in (ii) agrees with this assumption.
