Physics - Kinetic Theory of Gases

Practise 7 VITEEE previous year questions on Kinetic Theory of Gases, compiled from papers spanning 2010 to 2024. Each question is pulled directly from the actual exam paper it appeared in, so you're practising in the exact style and difficulty VITEEE tests.

Kinetic Theory of Gases has been asked in 6 of the 18 years of VITEEE papers analysed (2006–2024), with 7 questions in all. 57% of them were easy, 43% moderate and 0% tough. Most of its questions came from 2013, with 2 questions that year. In the last three years (2022–2024) it had 1 question across 1 paper, about 1 per paper.

The chapter's 3 topics are not weighted equally: Degree of Freedom and Specific Heat (4 questions, 57%), Speed of Gas (2 questions, 29%), and Gas Laws (1 question, 14%) have been asked the most. Over the last five years the most frequent topics have been Gas Laws (1) and Speed of Gas (1).
