P3: Particle Model Flashcards
Define density
Equation
Mass per unit volume (an object )
P= m/v
Measured in kg/m3 cubed
Changes of state( physical changes)
Melting = solid to liquid
Evaporation= liquid to gas
Condensation = gas to liquid
States of matter
Solid= most density, neatly arranged, vibrate at fixed positions , least ke
Liquid= can flow over eachother
Gases= particles move freely, random, lowest density, most ke
Changes of state
Define internal energy
Total kinetic and potential energy of particles in system
Changes of state
Chemical changes
Physical changes
Chemical changes= not reversible
Physical changes= if reversed the materials properties can be recovered
Define sublimation
When solid changes to gas without becoming liquid
Heating curves
Heating increases energy of particles
Increasing their internal energy
Results in :
Raises temp of system
Or change in state
Specific heat capacity
Define
Amount of Energy required to raise temp of 1kg of substance to 1C (Celsius)
Specific heat latent
Define
Equation
Energy needed to change state of 1kg of substance without change of state
E= mass x slh
E= m x l
Gas pressure
Force acting perpendicular to a surface, per unit area
Gas pressure
Work done
Bike pump
Doing work on gas transfers energy to it
Pump is compressed, work done on gas so temp increases
Gas pressure
Equation
pV= constant
