States of Matter A Matter of Kinetic Energy
Types of States of Matter Solid Liquid Gas Plasma Beam BEC, or Bose-Einstein Condensate – Zero State of Matter – Most Dense

Superheated Vapor When the temperature is higher than the boiling a given pressure. Vapor cannot exist in contact with the fluid, nor contain fluid particles. Increase in pressure or decrease in temperature will not, within limits, condensate out liquid particles in the vapor. Highly superheated vapors are gases that approximately follow the general gas law.
Critical Temp & Pressure Critical Temperature – The temperature at which only gas exists, regardless of its pressure Critical Pressure – The lowest pressure at which liquids exist at critical temperature Critical Point – The intersection of critical temperature & pressure
Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Gases Ideal gas = hypothetical gas perfectly aligns with all kinetic-molecular theory assumptions Five Assumptions – Distance between molecules dwarfs actual size – All collisions are perfectly elastic – Particles are in continuous, rapid, random motion – Particles have NO attraction to each other – Temperature = average kinetic energy of particles
Nature of Gases Ideal vs. Real – Real approaches low pressure/ high temp Expansion – molecules fill entire space Fluidity – no intermolecular attractions Density - ~ of liquid or solid state Compressibility – 100X more molecules Diffusion & Effusion – Spontaneous mixing via random motion – Passing through tiny opening
C/C Intermolecular Forces
Properties of Liquids LEAST common state of matter in universe Fluids (as are gases) Lower kinetic energy than gases Interactive forces keep molecules connected – Dipole-dipole forces Equal but opposite charges separated by short distance – London dispersion forces Spontaneous creation of dipoles (polar & nonpolar) – Hydrogen bonding (electronegativity)
Hydrogen Bonding
Properties of Liquids, continued Density: 100x > gases; 10% < solids 10 3 atm., volume ~ 4% Diffusion: present, but slower than in gases Surface tension: high intermolecular attraction Capillary action: attraction between surfaces of liquid and a solid Vaporization: evaporation & boiling gas
Nature of Solids Interparticle attractions stronger than others Two types of solids – Crystalline (orderly arrangement) – Amorphous (random arrangement) supercooled liquids: have liquid properties even if look solid Shape & Volume: Definite Melting Point: Definite Density & Incompressibility: High Diffusion: Low rate (10 -6 less than others)
