it states that matter is made up of particles that are constantly moving
kinetic molecular theory of solids and liquids
the arrangement of particles in solids, liquids, and gases explains the _
different properties
held by very strong forces of attraction, particle not free to move, particle vibrate about in fixed positions
solid (movement)
held together by strong forces of attraction, particles are able to slide past one another
liquid (movement)
very high density
solid
high density
liquid
extremely slowly infusibility

nobel prize for physics in 1910. norwegian dutch physicist. suggested that there must be a reason why gases condensed when cooled
Johannes Diderik van der Waals
sometimes called as noncovalent bonds
intermolecular forces
intermolecular forces sometimes called as
noncovalent bonds
Named after bonding, and London dispersion forces.
* Also Known as van der waals forces, named after a Dutch chemist, Johannes van der Waal (1837-1923).
intermolecular forces
are weak attractions that are used to explain the attraction between nonpolar molecules as it apparent that even nonpolar molecules can have dipoles for short periods of
time.
London Dispersion Forces (LDF)
LDF
London Dispersion Forces
the attraction of bond dipoles, in different molecules
dipole-dipole forces
exist when polar molecules are attracted to ions
ion-dipole forces
A weak bond formed when a hydrogen with partial positive charge is close to an atom in a molecule with lone pairs of electrons or with excess electronic charge.
hydrogen bond or hydrogen bridge
s the force that causes the molecules on the surface of a liquid to “tighten their hold to one another” creating the effect of a thin membrane on the surface.
surface tension
Substances with strong attractive forces between the molecules have high surface tensions.
surface tension
It is temperature-dependent; it decreases as temperature increases.
surface tension
is a measure of its tendency to resist flowing motion
viscosity
Polar molecules and molecules with complex structures tend to have higher viscosity, being less able to slip and slide over one another than those with simple structures and less polarty.
viscosity
the spontaneous rising of a liquid in a narrow tube, is also observed
capillary action
