    Study Notes

    Changes of State

    • Changes of state are physical changes, no new substances are created.
    • Mass remains constant during a change of state, as the number of particles does not change.
    • Increasing temperature increases particle kinetic energy, leading to faster movement and potential state changes.

    States of Matter

    • Solids: Particles are closely packed, fixed positions, vibrate but do not move.
    • Liquids: Particles are close but mobile, able to move past each other, fixed volume but not fixed shape.
    • Gases: Particles are widely spaced, move randomly and rapidly, no fixed volume or shape.

    Internal Energy

    • Internal energy is the sum of kinetic and potential energies, of all the particles within a substance.
    • Heating increases internal energy.

    Gas Temperature and Pressure

    • Gas temperature is related to the average kinetic energy of the particles within a gas.
    • Heating a gas increases particle speed, which increases pressure exerted on the container walls.
    • Compressing a gas increases pressure; the energy remains within the gas, causing faster particle movement and resulting temperature increase.

    Density

    • Density is calculated as mass divided by volume.
    • Density is a measure of how tightly packed particles are, in a certain volume.

    Latent Heat

    • Latent heat is energy transferred during a change of state, without a temperature change.
    • Specific latent heat is the energy needed to change the state of 1 kg of a substance without changing its temperature.
    • Specific latent heat of fusion is the energy needed to melt 1kg of a substance at its melting point.
    • Specific latent heat of vaporisation is the energy to change 1kg of a substance from liquid to vapour at its boiling point.
