Intermolecular Forces Flashcards
THE KINETIC MOLECULAR THEORY OF MATTER
- explains the observable properties of the states of matter
Matter is made up of
tiny particles that are constantly moving
What particles hv energy?
All
What states has least energy?
Solid
State has most energy?
Gas
A phase changr occur as the
energy of particles is increased or
decreased.
High amnt of space
Gas
Least space
Solid
5- Atoms and molecules have ?between them
attractive forces
. The
larger the space, the ? the force of attraction.
weaker
Intra
Within
? force since there is
a bond that holds the two atoms
of the same molecule together.
intramolecular
attractive force that holds the
the atoms of two molecules
together.
Intermolecular
Intermolecular is ? Than intramolecular
Weaker
The strength of interaction between molecules determines the ?,
Properties of a substance
The strength of the interaction between molecules affects the ? and ?of compounds as well as the ? of one substance to another.
melting boiling point solubility
• It also causes the compound to exist in ? at a given temperature.
