Chapter 2: Kinetic Particle Theory
Solid
closely packed in an orderly pattern
particles vibrate about fixed positions
very strong forces of attraction
low energy of particle
cannot be compressed
Liquid
less closely packed in a disorderly pattern
particles slide past each other
strong forces of attraction
not too high energy of particle
cannot be compressed
Gas
far apart
fast and random
very weak forces of attraction
very high energy of particle
can be compressed
Changes in states of matter
solid to liquid (melting)
liquid to gas (boiling/evaporation)
gas to liquid (condensation)
liquid to solid (freezing)
Curves (graphs)
heating curve: melting and boiling (graph moves upwards)
cooling curve: freezing (graph moves downwards)
