c02 kinetic particle theory

Question 1

arrangement and movement of particles in a solid and the forces of attraction

Answer 1

very closely packed and vibrates about their fixed positions and very strong forces of attraction between particles

Question 2

arrangement and movement of particles in a liquid and the forces of attraction

Answer 2

closely packed and slides past one another and strong forces of attraction between particles

Question 3

arrangement and movement of particles in a gas and the forces of attraction

Answer 3

very far apart and moves rapidly, randomly and weak forces of attraction between particles

Question 4

why does temperature stay constant when a substance in melting or boiling?

Answer 4

the energy is used to overcome the forces of attraction instead of raising or lowering the temperature

Question 5

why does temperature stay constant when a substance in freezing?

Answer 5

energy is released when forces of attraction strengthens between the particles

Question 6

compressibilities of the states of matter

Answer 6

solid cannot be compressed, liquids can be compressed, gasses can be compressed
