Particle models and kinetic theory of matter Flashcards
1
Q
What is matter made up off?
A
Know that matter is made of particles (atoms and molecules) that are in continuous motion (the kinetic theory), and that Brownian motion provides evidence for this
2
Q

A
Vibrates in fixed position
3
Q
Solid bond strength
A
Strong
4
Q
Liquid movement
A
Free to move but particles but still touching
5
Q
Liquid bond strength
A
Medium
6
Q
Gas movement
A
Free to move around the whole volume
7
Q
Gas bond strength
A
Very weak
8
Q
Density for solid liquid and gases
A
Solid has the most, then liquid, then gas
