    Study Notes

    Kinetic Molecular Theory

    • All matter is composed of tiny particles (atoms or molecules)
    • Particles are in constant, random motion
    • The distances between particles are large (especially in gases)
    • There are no attractive or repulsive forces between particles in a gas
    • The kinetic energy of the particles is proportional to the temperature of the system

    Properties of Matter

    • Gases:
      • Assumes the volume and shape of the container
      • Low density
      • Highly compressible
    • Liquids:
      • Fixed volume
      • Assumes the shape of the container
      • Higher density than gases
      • Cannot be easily compressed
    • Solids:
      • Fixed volume and shape
      • High density
      • Cannot be easily compressed

    Molecular Behavior

    • Gases:

      • Random, fast motion with large distances traveled
    • Liquids:

      • Random motion with medium speed and limited distance traveled
      • Vibrational motion in place
    • Solids:

      • Vibration in place
    • An increase in temperature increases kinetic energy of particles in all phases

    • Molecules can be polar or nonpolar

    • Polar molecules have a separation of charge

    • Nonpolar molecules do not have a separation of charge

    Intermolecular Forces

    • Intramolecular: Forces within molecules. Stronger than intermolecular forces.
    • Intermolecular: Forces between molecules. Weaker than intramolecular forces.
    • Types of Intermolecular forces:
      • Ion-dipole: Attraction between an ion and a polar molecule
      • Dipole-dipole: Attraction between two polar molecules
      • Hydrogen bonding: A special type of dipole-dipole interaction involving hydrogen bonded to N, O, or F.
      • London Dispersion Forces (LDF): Weak attractions caused by temporary dipoles in nonpolar molecules. Larger molecules have stronger LDF.

    Types of Attractions

    • Ionic bonds: Between a metal and a nonmetal
    • Covalent bonds: Between two nonmetals
    • Metallic bonds: Between metal atoms

    Additional Properties of Liquids

    • Fluid: A gas or liquid that can flow
    • Surface tension: The resistance of a liquid's surface to stretching or breaking.
    • Capillary action: The tendency of a liquid to rise in narrow tubes or be drawn into small openings
    • Viscosity: A measure of a fluid's resistance to flow
    • Vapor Pressure: The pressure exerted by a vapor in equilibrium with its liquid or solid phase at a given temperature
    • Boiling point: The temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the external pressure
    • Molar heat of vaporization (ΔHvap): The energy required to vaporize one mole of a liquid at a given temperature. A higher ΔHvap indicates stronger intermolecular forces.

    Additional Properties of Solids

    • Crystalline solids: Have an ordered, repeating arrangement of particles in a three-dimensional structure.
    • Amorphous solids: Do not have a long-range order in their structure and may appear to be supercooled liquids
    • X-ray diffraction: A technique used to determine the atomic and molecular structure of crystals

    Concentration of Solutions

    • Dilute solutions: Low concentration of solute
    • Concentrated solutions: High concentration of solute
    • Saturated solutions: Contains the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve at a given temperature.
    • Unsaturated solutions: Contains less solute than can dissolve
    • Supersaturated solutions: Contains more solute than can normally dissolve at that temperature.
