A classic experiment to demonstrate Brownian motion involves observing smoke particles suspended in air inside a small glass cell (a smoke cell).
State three essential components of the experimental setup required to perform and observe this demonstration, and briefly describe the function of each.
Describe precisely what is observed when viewing the smoke cell through the microscope.
Explain the cause of these observations in terms of the kinetics and collisions of air molecules.
