Kinetic Theory Of Matter Flashcards
How are the particles like in a liquid? How do they move? What are their forces like?
The particles are packed closely gather but not in an orderly arrangement they are held together by a strong forces but weaker than the forces in a solid particles can vibrate rotate and move throughout the liquid and they collide against each other
How are the particles in a solid? How do they move?
The particles are packed closely together in an orderly manner. There are strong forces between the particles the particles only vibrate and rotate about they fixed positions
How are particles like in a gas? How do they move? How are the forces like in it?
The particles are very far apart from each other and in random motion of the particles have a week forces in the particles can vibrate rotate and move freely the rated collision is greater than the rate of collision in a liquid
