Study Notes
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.
