Chap 7: Model of Matter Flashcards
What is the forces of attraction in solid
Very strong forces of attraction
What is the forces of attraction in liquid
Strong forces of attraction
What is the forces of attraction in gas
weak forces of attraction
What is the arrangement in a liquid
Closely packed in a disorderly manner
What is the arrangement in a solid
Very closely packed in a orderly manner
What is the arrangement in a gas
Far apart in a disorderly manner
What are the movements in solid
Vibrate among their fixed positions
What are the movements in liquid
Slide past one another
What are the movements in gas
Randomly and quickly
What happens when a substance in the solid state is heated?
It’s particles gain more energy and vibrate more amongst their fixed positions, the distance between the particles increase and the volume of the solid increases
( same thing goes for liquids and gases )
What happens when a substance is cooled?
It’s particles lose energy and vibrate less amongst their fixed positions, the distance between the particles decrease and the volume of the solid decreases
( same goes for liquids and gases )
**What happens when a solid melts into liquid?
When a solid is heated, they vibrate faster about their fixed positions. They eventually gain enough energy to overcome the very strong forces of attraction between them, thus melting into a liquid
**What happens when a liquid boils into a gas?
When the liquid is heated, its particles gain energy. They move faster and further apart from one another. They eventually gain enough energy to overcome the strong forces of attraction between them, thus boiling into gas
What is diffusion?
Diffusion are particles moving in constant, random motion from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration.
What happens when particles is added into a beaker of water?
The particles move in a constant and random motion. The particles eventually moves from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration and eventually becomes uniform due to the overall net movement of particles
