presentation on molecular arrangement of molecules in the three states of matter on the basis of kinetic theory of matter
Answers
Key Points
- All particles have energy, and the energy varies depending on the temperature the sample of matter is in, which determines if the substance is a solid, liquid, or gas. Solid particles have the least amount of energy, and gas particles have the greatest amount of energy.
- The temperature of a substance is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles. A change in phase may occur when the energy of the particles is changed.
- There are spaces between particles of matter. The average amount of empty space between molecules gets progressively larger as a sample of matter moves from the solid to the liquid and gas phases.
- Key Terms
1.kinetic molecular theory: Theory of treating samples of matter as a large number of small particles (atoms or molecules), all of which are in constant, random motion
2.kinetic: Of or relating to motion.
3.lattice: A regular spacing or arrangement of atoms/molecules within a crystal.
4.phase: A component in a material system that is distinguished by chemical composition and/or physical state. Matter can exist in the solid, liquid, and gaseous phases.
Answer:
Explanation:
In solids - 1. Maximum inter-molecular force of attraction
2. Minimum inter-molecular space
3. Movement of particles - Vibrate on their mean position
In liquids - 1. Inter-molecular force of attraction is less strong than in solids and stronger than it is in gases.
2. Inter-molecular space is more than in solids and less than it is in gases.
3. Molecules can move freely within the boundary of the liquid.
In gases - 1. Inter-molecular force- Minimum
2.Inter-molecular space - Maximum
3. Particles move randomly in any direction (zig zag moton)
These 3 properties in each state give each state it's respective properties
