intermolecular forces Flashcards
matter is composed of
small particles
matter is composed of
small particles
the molecules interact with one another through
attractive forces
the strength of these forces is related to the distance between particles
attractive forces
these molecules are always in
constant random motion
the ____ of a substance is a measure of the ____ ____ ____ of the molecules
temperature, average kinetic energy
billard ball model
John Dalton
plum pudding model
Sir Joseph John Thomson
nuclear model
Ernest Rutherford
building blocks of matter
atoms
the attractive forces between molecules are known as the
intermolecular forces
the ____ the interaction between two molecules, the ____ their distance will be
stronger, smaller
___ have particles with strong intermolecular forces such that their particles are very close to one another
solids
___ have intermediate intermolecular forces and particles are farther from one another
liquids
___ weak intermolecular forces and particles are very far apart from one another
gases
the extent of motion varies depending on the ____ and ____ of the interaction between the particles
temperature, strength
particles only able to vibrate back and forth a specific point or location; have restricted motion
solids
are able to move past each other; motion is restricted to small distances as they will collide with another molecule
liquids
are able to move in relatively long distances before colliding with another molecule
gases
at ____ temperature, intermolecular forces determine the state of substance
lower
substances with ____ and ____ intermolecular forces will form a condensed phase either solid or liquid
intermediate, strong
a higher temperature means
higher average kinetic energy
increasing temperature also
weakens the intermolecular forces of attraction
liquid water is heated, particles are able to move past one another in relatively long distances, process of which liquid is converted to gas
vaporization
