Study Notes
Properties of Solids, Liquids, and Gases
Solids
- Highly strong intermolecular forces between molecules, resulting in a definite volume
- Have a definite shape
- No intermolecular space between molecules
- Force of attraction between molecules is incredibly high
- Incompressible, cannot be compressed
- Have a definite shape
Liquids
- Intermolecular forces are stronger than gases but weaker than solids
- Have a moderate but present intermolecular space
- Force of attraction between molecules is pretty moderate
- No definite shape
- Cannot be compressed
Gases
- Intermolecular forces are practically non-existent
- No definite volume
- No definite shape
- Inter molecular space is free-flowing and plenty
- Can be compressed quite easily
