Collision Thry & Mean Free Path Hs

1) The mean free path is defined as the average distance traveled by a molecule between collisions. 2) The collision diameter is the closest distance between the centers of two molecules taking part in a collision. 3) The collision frequency is the number of collisions taking place per second per unit volume of gas molecules.
