In the gaseous state, the molecules are completely free because there is no intermolecular interaction between the molecules hence they translate at incredibly high velocity.

According to the kinetic theory of matter, the molecules that compose matter are in constant random motion. The nature of this motion varies in the three states of matter which are;

  • Solid
  • Liquid and
  • Gas

In the solid state, the molecules do not translate, they only vibrate and rotate about their mean positions. In the liquids state, the molecules translate but they still have restricted degrees of freedom due to intermolecular interactions. In the gaseous state, the molecules are completely free because there is no intermolecular interaction between the molecules hence they translate at incredibly high velocity.
