Properties of Solids |
Particles are close together and form a lattice Most exist in regular 3D structures called crystals Have definite shapes and volume Particles are in a fixed position Intermolecular forces are strong, particles vibrate in a fixed position |
|
Properties of Liquids |
Further apart than in solids No fixed position Definite volume No definite shape Slightly weaker intermolecular forces Free to slide over each other in random motion |
|
Properties of Gases |
Particles are further apart, less dense Continuous motion with high speed in all directions Intermolecular forces are negligible except during collisions No fixed positions or fixed volumes |
|
Pressure in Gases |
The change of momentum of the particles striking the walls creating a force |
|
Evaporation |
Particles of a liquid that have high kinetic energy move about in the liquid and eventually escape through the surface and thus leaving the less energetic, slower particles in the container |
|
Relate evaporation with cooling |
Consequently, the average kinetic energy of the remaining particles decreases and so does the temperature of the liquid. The liquid cools |
