Q
kinetic theory of matter
explaination
A
is used to explain the behaviour of the particles of matter in three phases
2
Q
the kinetic theory of matter
1-8
A
- all matter consits of tiny paricles
- particles are in continious motion
- there are open spaces
- there are AF & RF btwn particles
- potential energy caused by the AF & RF
- collisons on the side of the container (elastic)
- both speed and kinetic enrgy arent the same across all the particles
- when the temp increses kinetic energy & average speed increases
- when temp changes the energy of the particles has too which cause a change in phase
