Kenetic Theory And Conduction P

Question 1

What are liquids?

Answer 1

There are weaker forces of attraction between the particles. The particles are close together, but can move past each other and form irregular arrangements. They have more energy than a solid and move in random directions at a slow speed

Question 2

What are gases

Answer 2

There are almost no forces of attraction between the particles. The particles have more energy than those in a solid or liquid. They are free to move and travel in random directions at high speed

Question 3

When you hear a substance you give its particles more..

Answer 3

Kinetic energy

Question 4

Conduction of heat energy is the process where..

Answer 4

Vibrating particles pass on their extra Kinetic energy to the neighbouring particles

Question 5

Materials that have a lot more space between there particles conduct heat energy much more…

Answer 5

Slowly these materials are insulators

Question 6

Why do metals conduct so well?

Answer 6

Because the electrons are free to move inside the metal

Question 7

What is the best conducted and why?

Answer 7

Metal because it has free electrons

Question 8

What are solids?

Answer 8

Strong forces of attraction hold the particles close together in a fixed regulate arrangement. The particles don’t have much energy so they can only vibrate around a fixed position.
