Study Notes
Model of Matter: The Particulate Nature of Matter
- Matter is composed of particles that exhibit different behaviors based on their states: solid, liquid, and gas.
Changes of States
-
Melting:
- Solid particles are closely packed in an orderly arrangement.
- On heating, particles gain energy, vibrate, and overcome strong forces of attraction, transitioning to the liquid state.
-
Boiling:
- Liquid particles gain more energy and vibrate more vigorously.
- Eventually, they gain enough energy to become a gas, moving further apart and becoming disorderly.
-
Freezing:
- When cooled, liquid particles lose energy and move slower.
- As they lose energy, the forces of attraction strengthen, and the particles rearrange into a closely packed, orderly solid.
-
Condensation:
- Gas particles are initially far apart and move quickly.
- Upon cooling, they lose energy, slow down, and are pulled closer together, transitioning back to a liquid state.
Key Characteristics of Particle Behavior
-
Solid:
- Particles vibrate about fixed positions and are very closely packed.
-
Liquid:
- Particles are closely packed but can slide past one another, allowing for a disorderly arrangement.
-
Gas:
- Particles are far apart, move quickly and disorderly, with weak forces of attraction between them.
Temperature Influence on States
- Increasing temperature leads to melting (solid to liquid) or boiling (liquid to gas).
- Decreasing temperature results in freezing (liquid to solid) or condensation (gas to liquid).
