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
