A

a) Melting
b) Freezing
c) Boiling
d) Condensing

26
Q

Draw a particle model to represent the following states:

a) Solid
b) Liquid
c) Gas

A
27
Q

What is the relationship between the forces between particles and a substance’s melting and boiling points?

A

The stronger the forces between particles, the higher the melting and boiling points (or vice versa)

28
Q

What do the following state symbols represent?

a) s
b) l
c) g
d) aq

A

a) Solid
b) Liquid
c) Gas
d) Aqueous

29
Q

Why do ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points?

A

Because a lot of energy is needed to break the many strong bonds.

30
Q

Why do molten or aqueous solutions of ionic compounds conduct electricity?

A

Ions are free to move so charge can flow

31
Q

Why do small molecules usually have relatively low melting and boiling points?

A
  • They have weak forces between molecules (intermolecular forces)
  • It is the intermolecular forces that are overcome, not the covalent bonds, when the substance boils.
32
Q

What happens to the size of intermolecular forces as the size of molecules increase?

A

The size of intermolecular forces increase (hence higher melting and boiling points for larger molecules)

33
Q

Can molecules conduct electricity? Give a reason for your answer.

A

No, because they have no overall electric charge.

34
Q

What state are most polymers at room temperature? Why?

A
  • Solid
  • Because they are large molecules, with strong intermolecular forces, hence relatively high melting and boiling points (compared with small molecules).
35
Q

What bonds must be overcome in order to melt or boil giant covalent structures?

A

The strong covalent bonds between the atoms

36
Q

Name the structures represented by the diagrams below:

A

a) diamond
b) graphite
c) silicon dioxide (silica)

37
Q

Diamond and graphite are made out of a single element. Name this element.

A

Carbon

38
Q

Do metals have high or low melting points and boiling points?

A

High melting and boiling points

39
Q

Describe how the arrangement of atoms makes pure metals soft.

A
  • Atoms arranged in layers
  • Layers slide easily over each other
40
Q

Describe how the arrangement of atoms in an alloy makes alloys harder than pure metal.

A
  • Different sized atoms
  • Layers distorted
  • Atoms can’t easily slide over each other
41
Q

Why are metals good conductors of heat and electricity?

A

They have delocalised electrons that can carry the charge (in terms of conducting electricity) or transfer energy (in terms of conducting heat)

42
Q

Describe the structure and bonding of Diamond.

A
  • Giant Covalent Structure
  • Each carbon forms four covalent bonds with other carbon atoms

47
Q

What are cylindrical fullerenes called and why are they useful?

A
  • Nanotubes

55
Q

Separate Q. What are some of the risks associated with using nanoparticles?

A
  • Some people worried that nanoparticles will be in use before any effects on human health are fully understood.
  • Though not confirmed, could cause cell damage, or damage to the environment if washed away.
