Characteristics of Particles of Matter

Particles of matter are extremely small and can be divided into smaller particles, as seen in the experiment with potassium permanganate.
Even with repeated dilution, the particles of matter can still be detected, indicating their small size.
The experiment with potassium permanganate shows that millions of particles can be present in just a few crystals.

Space Between Particles of Matter

Particles of matter have space between them, as observed in activities 1, 1.2, and 1.3.
Evenly distribution of particles occurs when sugar, salt, Dettol, or potassium permanganate are added to water.

Movement of Particles

Particles of matter are continuously moving, as seen in the experiment with incense stick.
The movement of particles increases with temperature, as observed in activity 1.5.
The rate of mixing changes with temperature, with hotter temperatures increasing the rate of mixing.

Interactions Between Particles

Particles of matter interact with each other, as observed in activities 1.3, 1.4, and 1.5.
The force of interaction between particles increases with kinetic energy.
Particles with high kinetic energy move faster and mix more quickly.

Observations and Conclusions

In activity 1.3, the smell of Dettol can be detected even after repeated dilution, indicating the small size of particles.
In activity 1.4, ink and honey diffuse slowly through water, demonstrating the movement of particles.
In activity 1.5, the crystals of copper sulphate or potassium permanganate settle at the bottom of the glass, and the particles move and mix with the surrounding water.

Test your knowledge on the experiment from Activity 1.3 of your Chemistry class where you dilute a solution multiple times and estimate the size of particles. See how well you understand the concepts of solution dilution and particle size estimation.
