Properties Of Liquid Flashcards
can be described in terms of its physical state
Matter
The three basic states of matter are?
Solid? Liquid and gas
have particles with
strong intermolecular
forces such that their
particles are very close to
one another
Solid
have intermediate
intermolecular forces.
This makes liquid particles
farther from one another
compared to those in
solids.
Liquid
have particles that are
very far apart from one
another due to weak
intermolecular forces.
Gas
can be attributed to the
intermolecular forces of attraction that hold the
molecules together in order to occupy a volume of a
certain space of a container
Properties of liquid
These intermolecular forces of attraction are directly
related to the
Surface tension, viscosity, and vapor pressure
the tendency of a fluid to acquire
the least possible surface area.
Surface tension
Water striders can walk on water because of?
Surface tension
the attraction between like molecules
Cohesion
the attraction between unlike
molecules.
Adhesion
the measure of a fluid’s resistance to flow.
Viscosity
Liquids that flow easily have?
Low viscosity
liquids
that do not flow readily have?
High viscosity
Honey is a?
Viscous liquid
