Study Notes

Kinetic Particle Model of Matter

  • Matter is composed of tiny particles (atoms, molecules, ions, and electrons)
  • These particles are in constant motion.
  • The state of matter (solid, liquid, gas) depends on the arrangement and motion of its particles.

Properties of Solids, Liquids, and Gases

  • Solids: Solids have a definite shape and volume, and are not easily compressed. Particles are closely packed in a fixed position.
  • Liquids: Liquids have a definite volume but take the shape of their container. Particles are further apart than in solids, allowing them to slide past one another.
  • Gases: Gases have no definite shape or volume, taking the shape and volume of their container. Particles are widely spaced and move randomly in all directions.

Changes of State

  • Melting: A solid changes to a liquid when heated, causing the particles to break free from their fixed positions.
  • Boiling: A liquid changes to a gas when heated, causing the particles to become widely separated and move freely.
  • Solidification (Freezing): A liquid changes to a solid when cooled, causing the particles to lose energy and settle into a fixed arrangement.
  • Condensation: A gas changes to a liquid when cooled, causing particles to lose energy and come closer together.
  • Evaporation: A liquid changes to a gas when heated at the surface, allowing some high-energy particles to escape into the gaseous phase.

Particle Diagrams

  • Used to represent the arrangement of particles in different states of matter
  • Can depict the relative spacing and movement of particles.

Temperature and Kinetic Energy

  • Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance.
  • Higher temperature means particles move faster.
  • Absolute zero (-273 °C or 0 K) is the theoretical temperature at which particle motion stops.

Pressure

  • Gas pressure is caused by the collisions of gas particles with the walls of their container.
  • Higher temperature increases the frequency and force of these collisions, resulting in higher pressure.
  • Higher pressure reduces the volume if temperature stays constant.

Brownian Motion

  • The random movement of microscopic particles suspended in a fluid (liquid or gas).
  • Evidence for the kinetic theory, as it demonstrates the constant motion of particles.

Gas Laws

  • Boyle's Law: At constant temperature, the pressure of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to its volume.
  • Charles' Law: At constant pressure, the volume of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature (in Kelvin).
  • Pressure Law: At constant volume, the pressure of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature (in Kelvin).

Thermal Expansion

  • Solids, liquids, and gases expand when heated and contract when cooled.
  • The expansion is most significant in gases, and least in solids.
  • Expansion is explained by the increased kinetic energy of particles, causing them to move further apart.

Specific Heat Capacity

  • The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by 1°C
  • Materials with higher specific heat capacity require more energy to change their temperature.

Melting and Boiling

  • Melting: The temperature at which a solid changes to a liquid.
  • Boiling: The temperature at which a liquid changes to a gas.
  • Both involve a change in the arrangement of particles but not in the temperature until the change in state is complete.
  • The transfer of energy (heat) does not change the temperature of the substance undergoing a change of state, until the entire substance is in the new state.
