    Brownian motion is the random movement of large molecules caused by collisions with smaller, faster molecules. It appears zigzag and random under observation. Robert Brown first observed the random motion of pollen grains in suspension, providing evidence for the kinetic molecular theory that matter is made of particles in motion. Brownian motion demonstrates that molecules are constantly bombarding larger particles, driving their unpredictable path.

    Brownian motion

    Define Brownian motion:


    Brownian motion is the random movement of large molecules due to their
    collision with the faster moving smaller molecules.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------
    Brownian motion is represented by the following diagram.

    • Motion is described as random and zig-


    zag.
    • Collisions happen because smaller molecules
    are moving faster and bombarding (colliding )
    with other massive particles.

    --------------------------------------------------------------
    Random motion of particles( pollen grains) in a suspension was observed by
    Robert Brown. This was the evidence for the kinetic molecular model of
    matter.
