Flashcards

What is a fluid?

A substance that flows, like liquid or gas. Examples include water, syrup, or the air in a tire.

What is a solid?

The state of matter where particles are closely packed and vibrate in place, giving it a definite shape and volume.

What is a liquid?

The state of matter where particles are close together but can move freely, making it have a definite volume but an indefinite shape.

What is a gas?

The state of matter where particles are far apart and move randomly, giving it an indefinite shape and volume.

Flow Rate

The time it takes for a fluid to flow from one point to another. It's calculated by dividing distance by time.

Viscosity

A measure of a fluid's resistance to flow. The thicker the fluid, the higher its viscosity.

High Viscosity

When a fluid has a high viscosity, like honey, it flows slowly and is considered thick.

Low Viscosity

When a fluid has a low viscosity, like water, it flows quickly and is considered runny.

Viscosity and Temperature

As temperature increases, the particles in a liquid move faster and farther apart, reducing friction and making the fluid more runny. This means the viscosity decreases.

Viscosity and Concentration

The amount of substance dissolved in a given volume. Higher concentration means more particles in the same space, leading to higher viscosity.

Viscosity and Attraction

The strength of attraction between particles in a fluid affects its viscosity. Stronger attraction creates a thicker, more viscous fluid.

Study Notes

States of Matter

  • Fluids are anything that flows, including liquids and gases. Examples include water, syrup, and compressed air.
  • Solids have a definite shape and volume. Particles are close together and vibrate in place.
  • Liquids have a definite volume but an indefinite shape. Particles are close together but can move freely.
  • Gases have neither a definite shape nor a definite volume. Particles are far apart and move randomly.

Changes of State

  • Evaporation: Liquid to gas.
  • Condensation: Gas to liquid.
  • Melting: Solid to liquid.
  • Solidification: Liquid to solid.
  • Sublimation: Solid to gas.
  • Deposition: Gas to solid.

Particle Theory of Matter

  • All matter is made of very small particles.
  • Particles in a pure substance are the same. Different substances have different particles.
  • There is space between particles.
  • Particles are always moving. The faster they move, the more energy they have.
  • Particles in a substance attract each other. The strength of this attraction depends on the type of particle.

Viscosity

  • Viscosity is a liquid's resistance to flow (thickness or thinness).
  • The greater the friction between particles, the higher the viscosity.
  • Flow rate is the time it takes for a fluid to flow. It is calculated by dividing distance by time. (Flow Rate = Distance / Time).

Factors Affecting Viscosity

  • Temperature: Increased temperature decreases viscosity as particles move faster and farther apart, reducing friction.
  • Concentration: Higher concentration generally increases viscosity as more particles are present in a given space.
  • Strength of Attraction: Stronger attractions between particles increase viscosity.
