molecule Flashcards
what is the molecule?
It is the smallest part of matter that can exist freely and has the properties of matter
What are the properties of the molecule?
- continuous motion
- intermolecular spaces
- intermolecular force
a drop of ink spreads thought water
b.c the molecules of ink are in continuous motion in all directions among the molecules of water
when you leave the perfume bottle open , you will smell it all over the room
b.c the molecules of perfume in continuous motion and they keep the properties of perfume
the volume of a mixture of water and alcohol is less than the sum of their volumes before mixing
b.c Some of the alcohol molecules occupy the inter-molecular spaces among water
the disappearance of a small amount of table salt when it is put in a beaker
b.c some of the salt molecules occupy the intermolecular among the water
intermolecular spaces
the spaces that are found among the molecules of matter
It is difficult to break a piece of iron
b.c the attraction force among molecules is very strong in solids
it is easy to divide the amount of water
b.c the attraction force among molecules is weak in the liquids
intermolecular force
the force that binds the molecules of matter together
