Characteristics of a solid
Particles closely packed in a fixed lattice
Vibrate in place, held by strong forces
Fixed shape & volume,
Pt2 characteristics of solid
incompressible
Low kinetic energy
Characteristics of a liquid
Particles close together, random arrangement
Slide past each other, weaker forces than solids
Fixed volume, takes shape of container, incompressible
PT2 characteristic of liquid
Medium kinetic energy
What is a gas?
Particles far apart, random motion
Very weak forces of attraction
Takes shape & volume of container, compressible
pt2 characteristic of gas
High kinetic energy
in kenetic particle theory describes what happen in melting
Particles gain kinetic energy, vibrate faster
Forces weaken, particles slide past each other
Occurs at melting point
In kenetic particle theory describes what happen in freezing
Particles lose kinetic energy, slow down
Forces strengthen, particles lock into lattice
Occurs at freezing point
In kenetic particle theory describes what happen in boiling
Particles gain kinetic energy, move rapidly
Forces break, random motion increases
Occurs at boiling point
Gas pressure = atmospheric pressure
In kenetic particle theory describes what happen in evaportation
Particles gain enough kinetic energy to escape from surface
Can occur at any temperature below boiling point
Happens gradually
Particles lose kinetic energy, slow down
Forces strengthen, particles come closer
describe in kinetic theory sublimation
Particles gain enough kinetic energy to overcome forces
Move directly from solid lattice → gas
describe in kinetic theory in depostion
Particles lose kinetic energy rapidly
Forces increase, particles arrange directly into solid lattice
Boiling vs evaportation
Boiling happen throughout a liquid while evaporation only happens on the surface
Boiling happen at a specfic tempreture evaporation happen at any tempreture below the boiling point
Boiling happen faster than evaporation( happen gradulally)
