The viscosity of a gaseous mixture can be calculated using the Chapman-Enskog equation, which takes into account the molecular weights, sizes, and collision cross-sections of the gas molecules in the mixture. The viscosity is typically expressed in terms of the collision diameter and the Lennard-Jones potential parameters of the gas molecules. Various empirical correlations and models may also be used to estimate the viscosity of gaseous mixtures under different conditions.

One key observation that supports the Kinetic Molecular Theory of Heat is that as temperature increases, the average kinetic energy of molecules in a substance also increases. This relationship between temperature and kinetic energy helps to explain various thermal properties of matter, such as expansion and changes in state.
