16
Q

in a closed container,

A

molecules cannot escape and collet as a vapor above the liquid

17
Q

during evaporation,

A

only those moleciules with a certain minimum kinetic energy can escape from the surface

18
Q

vapor pressure

A

MEASURE of tje fprce exerted by a gas above a lquid

19
Q

in a system at constant vapor pressure

A

dynamic equilibrium exists between the vapor and the lidquid because the rate of evap equals rate of condens

20
Q

manometer

A

measures vapor pressure

21
Q

boiling

A

when a liquid is heated to a temp at which particles have enough energy to vaporize

22
Q

boiling point

A

temperature at which vapor pressure is equal to external pressure

23
Q

how does altitude affect boiling point

A

water boils at a lower temp at high ltitudes bc lower pressure

24
Q

normal boiling point

A

nboiling point of a liquid at 101.3 kPa

25
melting point
temp at which a solid changes into a liquid
26
crystal
particles arranged in an orderly, repeating, 3d pattern called a crystal lattice
27
the shape of a crystal relfects
the arrangement of particles within the solid
28
crystals are classified into
7 systems
29
unit cell
smallest group of particles within a crystal that retains the geometric shape
30
allotropes
two or more differnt molecular forms of the same elemtn in the same physical state
31
example of an allotrope
carbon
32
amorphous solid
lacks an ordered internal structure
33
examples of amorphousolids
rubber, plastic, asphalt, glass
34
glass
transparent fusion product or inorganic substances that have cooled to a riid state without crystalizing
35
sublimation
solid to a vapor without liquid state
36
phase diagram
graphc that gives the conditions of temp and pressure at which a substance exists as a solid, liquid or gas
37
triple point
only set of condiiotn s at which 3 phases can exist in equilibrium
