23
Q

Melting (describe the process in terms of kinetic particle theory)

A
  1. When a solid is heated, the particles gain kinetic energy and vibrate more vigorously
  2. The particles vibrate faster as the temperature increases until the energy they gain is able to overcome the intermolecular forces that hold them in their fixed positions
  3. At this point, the solid changes to a liquid.
24
Q

Freezing (describe the process in terms of kinetic particle theory)

A
  1. When a liquid is cooled, the particles lose kinetic energy and move slower.
  2. As the temperature continues to drop, the particles lose more energy until they do not have enough energy to move freely.
  3. At this point, the liquid changes to a solid.
25
Q

Sublimation occurs when ________

A

particles at the surface of the solid have enough energy to break away from the solid and escape as a gas

26
Q

Examples of substances that sublime

A

Iodine, ammonium chloride, dry ice (carbon dioxide)

27
Q

Boiling occurs at a ________ temperature whereas evaporation occur at ________ temperature

A

fixed

any

28
Q

Boiling is a ________ process whereas evaporation is a ________ process (speed)

A

quick

slow

29
Q

Boiling takes place ________ the liquid whereas evaporation takes place only ________

A

throughout

on the surface

30
Q

In boiling, ________ occurs whereas in evaporation, no ________occurs

A

bubbling

bubbling

31
Q

In boiling, temperature ________ whereas in evaporation, temperature ________

A

remains constant

may change

32
Q

In boiling, heat is supplied by ________ whereas in evaporation, heat is supplied by ________

A

energy source

surroundings

33
Q

Define “diffusion”

A

The net movement of particles (atoms, ions or molecules) from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration i.e. down a concentration gradient

34
Q

Factors that affect the rate of diffusion

A
  1. Temperature
  2. Relative molecular mass
  3. Concentration gradient
  4. Thickness of the barrier
35
Q

How does temperature affect the rate of diffusion?

A

Increase in temperature increases the rate of diffusion

36
Q

How does molecular mass affect the rate of diffusion?

A

Molecules with lower molecular masses (lighter) diffuse faster than those with higher molecular masses (heavier)

37
Q

How does concentration gradient affect the rate of diffusion?

A

As the concentration gradient becomes steeper, the rate of diffusion increases.

38
Q

How does thickness of the barrier affect the rate of diffusion?

A

As the thickness of the barrier increases, the rate of diffusion decreases
