4. Kinetic Theory

5. There are 3 states of matter: SOLID LIQUID GAS

6. Kinetic theory explains how particles in matter behave. All matter is made of small particles in constant, random motion. They collide with each other and the walls of their container.

7. Thermal energy is the total energy of a material’s particles and causes the particles to vibrate in place.

8. Average kinetic energy is the temperature of the substance, or how fast the particles are moving; the lower the temperature, the slower the particle motion.

9. Solid state particles are closely packed together in a specific type of geometric arrangement.

10. Liquid state - A solid will liquefy at the melting point as the particles gain energy to overcome their ordered arrangement. The amount of energy required to reach the melting point is called heat of fusion.

11. Liquid particles have more space between them allowing them to flow and take the shape of their container.

12. Gas state - the particles in a liquid have enough energy to escape the attractive forces of the other particles in the liquid. Heat of vaporization - the energy needed to change a liquid to a gas.

13. Boiling point – the pressure of the liquid’s vapor equals the pressure of the atmosphere, & the liquid becomes a gas.

14. Diffusion Gas particles spread evenly throughout the container.

15. As solids melt & liquids vaporize, the temperature remains constant; the temperature will increase only after the attractive forces of the earlier state have been overcome. Heating curve of a liquid

16. Plasma - 4 th state of matter consisting of high-temperature gas with balanced positively & negatively charged particles.

17. Thermal expansion An increase in the size of a substance when the temperature increases. The size of a substance will decrease when the temperature decreases.

18. Expansion and contraction occur in most solids, liquids, and gases.

19. as it becomes a solid. Water is an exception. It ex p a n d s

20. Some other substances do not react as expected when changing states.

21. Amorphous solids a. Lack the tightly ordered structure found in crystals. Glass & Plastic b. Don’t have definite phase change temperatures.

22. Liquid crystals in displays do not completely lose their ordered arrangement upon melting.

24. Properties of Fluids

25. Buoyancy - the ability of a fluid (liquid or gas) to exert an upward force on an object immersed in it.

26. An object in a fluid will float if its weight is less than the buoyant force from the fluid. An object in a fluid will sink if its weight is more than the buoyant force from the fluid.

27. The buoyant force on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. Archimedes’ principle

28. An object will float if its density is less than the density of the fluid in which it is placed.

29. Pascal’s principle Pressure (force exerted/unit area) applied to a fluid is transmitted equally throughout the fluid. Hydraulic machines use this principle to lift heavy loads.

30. Bernoulli’s principle As the velocity of a fluid increases, the pressure exerted by the fluid decreases.

31. Viscosity - A liquid’s resistance to flow. 1. Molecular structure determines a fluid’s viscosity. 2. Increasing the temperature will lower the viscosity.

32. Behavior of Gases

33. called the pascal (Pa). Pressure is measured in units Blaise Pascal

34. Collisions of particles in air result in atmospheric pressure.

35. Moving particles colliding with the inside walls of a container result in gas pressure.

36. as the pressure increases, the volume decreases and as the pressure decreases, the volume increases. Boyle’s Law At a constant temperature …

37. as the temperature increases, the volume increases and as the temperature decreases, the volume decreases. Charles’s Law At a constant pressure,

38. Gay-Lussac’s Law as the temperature increases, the pressure increases and as the temperature decreases, the pressure decreases. At a constant volume,
