Study Notes
Matter and its Composition
- Matter is anything that has mass and can occupy space.
- It is composed of baryonic materials.
Phases of Matter
- Solid phase: strong intermolecular forces between neighboring particles, keeping them locked in position, making them non-compressible.
- Liquid phase: intermolecular attractive forces hold particles close together, making them dense and less compressible, with a definite volume.
- Gas phase: no fixed volume or shape, can diffuse and fill a container, with the capacity to expand.
Temperature and Kinetic Energy
- Temperature is a measurement of how hot or cold matter is.
- Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object in motion.
Kinetic Molecular Theory
- Matter is composed of particles that are constantly in motion, possessing kinetic energy.
- The amount of kinetic energy in a substance is directly proportional to its temperature.
- There is a space between particles, and the amount of space is related to the substance's state of matter.
- Phase changes occur when the temperature of the substance changes sufficiently.
Intermolecular Forces
- Intermolecular forces are attractive forces that act between molecules.
- Types of intermolecular forces:
- Dipole-dipole force: between oppositely charged poles of polar molecules.
- Hydrogen bond: between polar molecules containing an electronegative oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine.
- Ion-dipole force: between an ion and a polar molecule.
- London dispersion force: a weak intermolecular force arising from interactive forces between instantaneous dipoles or induced dipoles in molecules, proposed by Fritz London.
Note on Intramolecular Forces
- Intramolecular forces are attractive forces that act within a molecule, distinguishing them from intermolecular forces that act between molecules.
