proposed all matter is made up of all extremely small particles
john dalton
basic functional units of matter
molecules
provides the basis for the scientific understanding of all matter
atomic theory of matter
it is to explain the molecular motion
kinetic theory of matter
the faster atoms or molecules are moving the less they are affected by cohension
cohesion
observed that microscopic pollen grains in a drop of water move in a random zigzag motion
robert brown
living pollen grains were moving their own until he discovered that nonliving microscopic particles such as granite dust and smoke particles exhibit the same random motion is what kind of motion
robert motion
the process of mix molecules of one substance with another substance by random molecular motion
diffusion
certain solids such as cellophane parchment skin and the member brains of living cells
semipermeable
one way diffusion through a sempipermeable membrane is
osmosis
solids are those whose molecules or atoms are arranged in a well ordered pattern
crystalline
solids such as tar wax rubber butter and glass do not have their molecules arranged in orderly patterns
amorphous
is the ability of a solid to recover its original shape after being deformed
elasticity
governs permanent deformation
plasticity
the resistance of a material to certain types of small deformation
hardness
hardness used frequently by mineralogist for identification of minerals
mohs scale
measures how easily a material is dented by a hard ball
brinell hardness
the molecules in the object are pulled apart
stretching
is expressed mathematically by the following equation f=kx
hookes law
is the opposite of stretching
compressive
is another common form of deformation
bending
the last major type of deformation is
torsion
attraction to molecules of a different type
adhesions
depends upon the strength of the cohesion in the liquid
surface tension
curved surface
meniscus
the phenomenon in which liquids in thin tubes rise above or fall beneath their own levels
capillary
the force exerted per unit of area
pressure
in the SI unit of pressure is
pascal
by gravity pulling on the liquid it its called what
gravitational pressure
this scientific law is now called
pascals principle
used to multiply force in barber chairs automobile brakes service station lifts
hydraulic press
