Q

what happens when a solid is heated?

A

what happens when a solid is heated?

- The particles will vibrate extremely fast so the force of attraction isn’t strong enough to hold them

Q

how does evaporation happen?

A

how does evaporation happen?
- when the liquid particles move very fast on the surface of the liquid that it’ll overcome the force of attraction between the particles and break away to form the gas

Q

What’s diffusion?

A

What’s diffusion?

- the spreading out of particles where there’s a high concentration to low concentration

17
Q

define a solvent?

A

define a solvent?

the solvent is a liquid substance that can dissolve on other substances

18
Q

why will it take the particles in liquid less time to diffuse?

A

why will it take the particles in liquid less time to diffuse?

  • because particles in a liquid move slower than gas
  • particles in a liquid are closer together than gas so it’ll take more time
19
Q

define a solution?

A

define a solution?

- which a liquid and solid substances dissolve together

20
Q

How does making a solution form?

A

How does making a solution form?
- the attractive force between the partials in a solute is being broken down and the new attractive force is being formed

21
Q

define a solute?

A

define a solute?

- is a solid substance that dissolves in a liquid

22
Q

Define a saturated solution?

A

Define a saturated solution?
- when a solution contains the maximum amount of solute dissolved in a solvent, the solvent will have small solute particles down the cup, etc.

23
Q

Define solubility?

A

Define solubility?

- ability of a substance to mix into a liquid

24
Q

explain the difference between evaporation and boiling?

A

explain the difference between evaporation and boiling?

- Evaporation can happen at any temperature but boiling occurs at a certain tempreture

25
Q

Name each movement of state of matter?

A

Name each movement of state of matter?

  • solid = vibrate around fixed positions
  • liquid = move around each other
  • gas = fast in all directions
