what is momentum of gases in thermodynamics

Featured Replies

I want to find the equation for momentum of gases in thermodynamics. Please help me . I need it urgently. Thanks

What do you believe the or even an "equation for momentum of gases" to be?

 

EDIT: Whatever: The average translational energy of a gas molecule is given by E = 3/2 kT, with k being the Boltzmann constant and T being the temperature. You directly get an average square of the momentum of such a gas molecule from that. That's probably towards what you think you meant.

The chart which includes X-axis{(speed) x (molecular mass) }and Y-axis{probability density} represents the closed value of the actual momentum distribution.

And, when you want the average value, the average momentum of molecules is useful.
