Q

Define transition temperatures

A

Transition temperatures are the specific temperatures where heating or cooling of a substance results in ** changes of state** instead of changes in temperatures.

Q

What happens during changes of state (energy-wise)?

A

Temperature remains constant as the avg KE of particles does not change.
Thermal energy->CPE and vice versa

Q

Describe melting

A

KE gained->particles in solid vibrate and move faster when heated
sufficient energy
->overcome forces of attraction holding them in their fixed positions and move around one another randomly.

Q

Describe freezing

A

Particles in liquid slow down
Thermal energy lost to surroundings when liquid is cooling->KE decreases
Particles eventually settle into fixed positions in an orderly arrangement
Solid is formed

Q

Describe expansion

A

Solid heated at temps below boiling pt-> cannot spread out freely, strongly attracted
Vibrate more quickly, but with wider spacing

16
Q

Describe contraction

A

When solid is cooled, thermal energy is transferred from the particles to the surroundings
Particles possess less kinetic energy
->vibrate slower and closer

17
Q

Define evaporation

A

The process by which a liquid changes to a gas at temperatures lower than its boiling point.

18
Q

Define boiling

A

The process by which s liquid changes to a gas throughout the liquid at the boiling point of the substance.

19
Q

Describe evaporation

A

At surface of liquid (in contact with air)-> enough KE to overcome attractive forces
‘Escapes’ liquid as vapor

20
Q

At what temperature does evaporation occur

A

At all temperatures

21
Q

Where in the liquid does evaporation occur?

A

At the surface, when only some particles have enough energy to escape as a gas

22
Q

Describe boiling
CLUE: talk ab energy transfer and forces of attraction

A

thermal energy transferred (at boiling pt.)-> gain KE->Particles in liquid move faster
gain sufficient energy->completely overcome forces of attraction holding them tgt

23
Q

What are the differences between evaporation and boiling?

A

where it occurs-> on surface (evaporation) vs throughout entire liquid (boiling)
what temp it occurs at-> any temp (evaporation) vs only at boiling pt (boiling)
speed-> slow process (evaporation) vs fast process (boiling)

24
Q

Define condensation

A

The process by which a gas changes to a liquid

25
Describe condensation
Gas is cooled, KE-> thermal energy transferred to surroundings Spacing between particles reduces when cooling->volume of gas decreases gas contracts until particles **come close enough form a liquid**
26
When does condensaion occur?
When water vapour touches a cold surface
27
What does liquifying gases do?
Shrinks volume of substance by a significant amount, makes it easy for storage
28
Define sublimation
The process by which a solid changes directly to a gas without going through the liquid state.
29
Define vapour disposition
The process by which a gas changes directly to a solid without going through the liquid state
30
Describe sublimation
**Thermal energy from surroundings** ->more **KE** **Particles at surface** of solid have enough **KE **to **break away from solid and escape as gas**
31
Describe vapour disposition
Particles in gas cool until they slow down and arrange themselves directly into solid state
32
What is the effect on molecular mass on diffusion?
greater Rmm, particles move slower and rate of diffusion is slower smaller Rmm, particles move faster and rate of diffusion is faster
