Kinelic theory

A quantity much used in kinelic theory is the "mean free path." which is the average distance traversed by a molecule between collisions. There are ways of calculating this and also the effective diameters of molecules, and these data lead to many conclusions as to frequency of collisions and rate of diffusion... 

Ludwig Edward Boltzmann is one of the foremost theoretical physicists of the latter nineteenth century. A vigorous advocate for the existence of atoms, he made monumental contributions to the kinelic theory of gases and established the statistical nature of the second law of thermodynamics.

As an intraesting aside, one attempt to understand the kinetics and mechanism of Reaction (5-C) has involved computer modeling, via transition-state theory, of 38 simultaneous elementary reactions.
