Particle model of matter 2

Question 1

what is specific latent heat?

Answer 1

the energy required to change 1kg of a substance
without changing the temp.

Question 2

what is specific heat capacity?

Answer 2

the energy needed to increase the temp. of 1kg of a substance by 1 degree

Question 3

condensation

Answer 3

gas to liquid
particles condense into a liquid due to the forces between particles increasing

Question 4

where does latent heat go?

Answer 4

rather than transferring the energy to a kinetic store of substances particles, the energy is absorbed and used to create or weaken bonds.

Question 5

when does a liquid boil?

Answer 5

when it has enough energy to completely escape the forces between them

Question 6

What term is used to describe the hidden energy when a solid becomes a liquid or a liquid becomes a solid?

Answer 6

latent heat of fusion

Question 7

What happens to the energy supplied during a change of state at both the melting and boiling points?

Answer 7

kinetic energy remains constant while potential energy increases
