|
solid state |
definite volume and definite shape |
|
what happens to a solid each passing minute? what does this cause? |
energy is added to the substance - this causes molecules of substance to move more rapidly which we detect by a temp rise in substance |
|
liquid state |
definite volume and indefinite shape |
|
gas state |
indefinite volume and indefinite shape
|
|
solids |
-high density -incompressible -low rate of diffusion |
|
liquid |
- takes shape of container - high density - relatively incompressible - medium rate of diffusion |
|
gas |
- takes shape and volume of container - low density - compressible - fast rate of diffusion |
|
kinetic molecular theory |
- based on idea that particles of matter are always in motion - can be used to explain properties of solids, liquids and gases in terms of the energy of particles and the forces that act between them |
|
melting |
- temp at which solid becomes liquid is the melting point - kinetic energies of particles overcome attractive forces holding them together |
|
what is the freezing point |
temp at which solid and liquid are in equilibrium at 1 atm |
|
molar enthalpy of fusion |
amount of energy as heat required to melt one mole of solid at the solid's melting point |
|
boiling |
energy must be added continuously in order to keep a liquid boiling |
|
what does the added energy do to boiling? |
overcomes attractive forces between molecules of the liquid during the liquid-to-gas change and is stored in the vapor as potential energy |
|
normal boiling point |
boiling point at normal atmospheric pressure |
|
molar enthalpy of vaporization |
amount of energy as heat that is needed to vaporize on mole of liquid at the liquid's boiling point at constant pressure |
|
two types of solids |
cyrstalline and amorphous solids |
|
which of the two types of solids are most solids in the world? |
cyrstalline solids (consist of crystals) |
|
crystal |
substance in which the particles are arranged in an orderly, geometric, repeating pattern |
|
amorphous solid |
one in which particles are arranged randomly; sometimes classified as supercooled liquids |
|
super cooled liquids |
substances that retain certain liquid properties even at temps at which they appear solid |
|
crystal solids melting point order |
CM |
|
ionic |
- melt at high temps - good insulators |
|
covalent network |
- melt at high temps - nonconductors or semiconductors |
|
metallic |
- melt at high temps - good conductors |
|
covalent molecular |
- melt at low temps - good insulators |
|
capillary action |
attraction of the surface of a liquid to the surface of a solid |
|
what is capillary action responsible for? |
concave liquid surface, called a meniscus |
|
surface tension |
force that tends to pull adjacent parts of a liquid's surface together, thereby decreasing surface area to the smallest possible size |
|
what do vapor molecules do in equilibrium with a liquid in a closes system? |
exert a pressure proportional to the concentration of molecules in the vapor phase |
|
equilibrium vapor pressure |
pressure exerted by a vapor in equilibrium with its corresponding liquid at a given temperature |
|
boiling point |
temp at which equilibrium vapor pressure of the liquid equals the atmospheric pressure ex. Denver |
|
volatile liquids |
liquids that evaporate readily ex. rubbing alcohol - have relatively weak forces of attraction between particles |
|
nonvolatile liquids |
don't evaporate quickly - have relatively strong attractive forces between their particles |

|
what is a chemical change |
change in color, formation of precipitate (new solid substance that settles out of solution), the production and release of gas or change in temp |
