particle model of matter - heat Flashcards
what is an objects internal store
the energy stored by the particles making up a system
- the total kinetic and potential energy of all the particles
how do you find an objects internal store
adding the kinetic and potential stores together
the formula for heat (thermal) capacity is …
heat capacity = mass x specific heat capacity.
what is specific latent heat
the amount of energy needed for 1kg of a substance to change state with no change in temperature
What is specific latent heat of fusion?
The energy required to change 1 kg of substance from a solid to a liquid with no change in temperature
what is the specific latent heat of vaporisation
The energy required to change 1 kg substance from a liquid to gas with no change in temperature
latent heat equation
energy=mass×specific latent heat ( J/kg )
what does an increase of temperature of a system depend on
depends on the mass of the substance heated, the
type of material and the energy input to the system.
what is a physical change
a change where you don’t end up with a new substance
why doesn’t the temperature of substances increase as they change state
because as the substance is heated up, it’s internal energy increases. As the substance melts, all the energy is used to break intermolecular bonds, so there’s no increase in the substances temperature as it changes state
what are the forces between particles
intermolecular
what forces are between particles
intermolecular
what gives particles kinetic energy
- intermolecular bonds
- chemical bonds
what is the specific heat capacity
the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1kg of substance by 1 degree
describe a heating graph
- the temperature of the solid rises as we are increasing the internal energy of the particles
- at some point, the temperature stops rising and the line becomes horizontal and at this point, the solid is changing state and turning into a liquid (melting)
- the energy we are putting in is weakening or breaking the forces of attraction between the particles, allowing the substance to change from a solid to a liquid
- eventually all the solid would have melted into a liquid, and now the temperature will start to rise agaib
- the temperature stops increasing again and becomes horizontal, because the substance is boiling as we are breaking the forces of attraction between the particles
