Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Gases; Effusion and Diffusion (Sections)

Newton had an incorrect theory of gases in which he assumed that all gas molecules repel one another and the walls of their container. Thus, the molecules of a gas are statically and uniformly distributed, trying to get as far apart as possible from one another and the vessel walls. This repulsion gives rise to pressure. Explain why Charles’s law argues for the kineticmolecular theory and against Newton’s model.
