In Topic 17 we noted that the constituent particles in a gas are free to move around independently of one another. The constituent particles of most ordinary gases are molecules. For instance, air consists of roughly 80% N2 and 20% O2 molecules with small quantities of CO2 and other molecular substances. (The minor constituents also include the inert gases, which exist as single atoms because of their stable electronic configurations.)
