Ludwig Boltzmann was an Austrian Physicist and he performed a simple but powerful experiment to gather evidence concerning the velocity distribution of a sample of gas particles.

His experiment revealed that the way Gases are distributed in its normal form across a range of temperature is dependent on the molar mass amen temperature of the gas. Gases with high temperature move faster due to the high number of colliding particles when compared to those with low temperature. Gases with lower molar mass move faster than those with higher molar mass.
