Q

explain the particle motion in gases.

A

The particles are constantly moving in random directions at a range of speeds. As they move, they collide with other particles, and exert a force. Therefore putting pressure on it.

Q

What is the arrangement, energy and density of a solid?

A

Strong forces hold particles in a regular fixed arrangement. They have the least energy - they vibrate around their fixed points. They are the most dense.

Q

What is the arrangement, energy and density of a liquid?

A

Weather forces hold the particles close, they can move past each other, in a random arrangement. More energy than solids - move in random directions at low speeds. They are dense.

Q

What is the arrangement, energy and density of a gas?

A

Weakest forces of attraction between the particles, are free to move and particles do not touch in a random arrangement. They have the most energy - they move in random directions at range of high speeds. They are the least dense.

17
Q

What qualities do low specific heat capacities have?

A

Heat up and cool down quickly.

18
Q

What qualities do high specific heat capacities have?

A

They require more energy and heat up or cool slowly.

19
Q

What so fluid pressure?

A

Force is exerted to any surface in contact with the fluid.

20
Q

What is the state change between solid to gas?

21
Q

What is the state change from a gas to a liquid?

22
Q

What type of change is a state change? And what does it mean?

A

Is a physical change - meaning of the state change is reversed, the substance will return to its original form and its original properties.
