Kinetic Energy
Energy created by movement
Kinetic Theory
All particles are in constant motion
Gas particles
small, indefinite volume, particles in random, rapid motion, particles collide with each other
Elastic collision
Kinetic energy is completely transferred from one object to another; Total kinetic energy of the system is conserved
Gas pressure
a force experienced when gas particles collide with each other
Atmospheric pressure
collision of particles in the air with another object
Convert from atm = mmHg = kPa
1 atm = 760 mmHg = 101.3 kPa
How are the average kinetic energy and Kelvin temperature related?
Directly proportional (if one increases by a factor of 2, the other also increases by a factor of 2, vice versa)
How does the kinetic energy in liquid particles compare to the kinetic energy in gas particles?
Kinetic energy in liquid particles is lower due to the intermolecular attraction between liquid particles
Liquid particles
takes the shape of the container, volume not affected by pressure, denser than gas particles
Evaporation
transition between liquid and gas; when liquid particles meet the minimum required kinetic energy to convert to gas
Vapor pressure
force exerted by gas particles on the liquid (area right above liquid)
Dynamic equilibrium
rate of evaporation = rate of condensation; no net change of particles in the system
What happens to vapor pressure as temperature increases?
Vapor pressure increases as well because the kinetic energy increases as temperature increases so more liquid particles are able to convert to gas particles
STP (Standard Temperature Pressure) Conditions
1 mole = 22.4L;
0 degrees Celcius = 273 Kelvin
1 atm = 101.3 kPa = 760 mmHg
Boiling point
a temperature where ALL of the liquid particles have enough kinetic energy to convert into gas (evaporate)
Normal Boiling Point
boiling point of a substance at STP
If you are at an area with elevated atmospheric pressure, will you have a higher or lower boiling point?
Higher boiling point because more kinetic energy is required to meet the elevated atmospheric pressure
Solid particles
very condensed, not compressible, pressure has no effect on the volume, no/little movement of particles, very low kinetic energy
Melting point
temperature where there is enough kinetic energy to break up the solid bonds to they can melt in to liquid particles; same as FREEZING POINT
What factor determines the melting/freezing point of a solid?
The type of bonds - the stronger the bonds (ionic bonds), more energy is required to break them --> higher melting /freezing point
Crystals
particles that are arranged in an organized, ordered manner
Unit cell
the smallest group of a crystal that retains the structure of the crystal
Allotropes
different structures, same elements
Amorphous solids
solid that lacks order (opposite of a crystal)
Sublimation
directly from solid to gas
When does sublimation occur?
when the vapor pressure of the solid is greater than atmospheric pressure
Triple Point
point where substance exist in solid, liquid, AND gas
What do the solid lines in a phase diagram represent
The temperature and pressure at which a substance can shift phases
