P1.1.2 Kinetic Theory Flashcards
1
Q
State the properties of a solid
A
Fixed particles They vibrate and pass energy When heated they vibrate with higher amplitude Strong bonds of attraction Particles close together
2
Q
State properties of liquids
A
Particles can move
Incompressible
Weak bonds
3
Q
Properties of gases
A
No attraction in particles
Particles move in random direction
Highest amount of kinetic energy
4
Q
What happens when a sold melts
A
Bonds break
Particles aren’t fixed
5
Q
What happens when liquids are heated
A
Bonds break
Particles gain kinetic energy
6
Q
What happens when gases are heated
A
Bonds form
Kinetic energy goes down
