Kinetic Particle Theory Flashcards
Matter can exist as a…
Solid, a liquid or a gas.
These three forms of matter are called…
The states of matter
Solid:
Shape = Fixed/Not Fixed
Volume = Fixed/Not Fixed
Compressibility = Can/Cannot
Shape = Fixed
Volume = Fixed
Compressibility = Cannot
Liquid:
Shape = Fixed/Not Fixed
Volume = Fixed/Not Fixed
Compressibility = Can/Cannot
Shape = Not Fixed
Volume = Fixed
Compressibility = Cannot
Gas:
Shape = Fixed/Not Fixed
Volume = Fixed/Not Fixed
Compressibility = Can/Cannot
Shape = Not Fixed
Volume = Not Fixed
Compressibility = Can
The kinetic particle theory states that…
All matter is made up of in particles and that these particles are in constant, random motion.
Solid:
Arrangement of Particles =
Attractive Forces between Particles =
Kinetic Energy of Particles =
Particle Motion =
- Orderly, Closely Packed
- Very Strong
- Very Low
- Vibrate and Rotate about a fixed position
Liquid:
Arrangement of Particles =
Attractive Forces between Particles =
Kinetic Energy of Particles =
Particle Motion =
- Disorderly, Less Closely Packed than in a solid
- Strong
- Low
- Slide over each other
Gas:
Arrangement of Particles =
Attractive Forces between Particles =
Kinetic Energy of Particles =
Particle Motion =
- Disorderly, Very Far Apart
- Very Weak
- High
- Move about at Great Speeds
