Particle model of matter Flashcards
(30 cards)
How are the molecules arranged in a solid?
Packed in a regular structure
How are molecules arranged in a liquid?
Are close together but atoms can move to one place to the other.
How are molecules arranged in a gas?
Separated by relatively large distances
Which state has the strongest force of attraction?
Solid
What is the equation of density?
Mass / volume
What is mass measured in?
Kg
What is volume measured in M^3
What is internal energy?
The energy that is stored inside a system by the particles that make up that system.
What is internal energy the total of?
Kennewick energy and potential energy that make up the system
What is the name of when a substance changes from a gas to a solid or vice versa?
Sublimation
What is specific heat capacity?
When the temperature of the system is increased by supplying energy to
What does the increase in temperature in specific heat capacity depend on?
. The mass of the substance heated
. What the substance is made of
. The energy put into the system.
What needs more energy to increase its temperature by 1° C water or concrete?
Water
What gives out more energy when cooling water or concrete?
Water
What is latent heat?
The energy needed for 1kg of a substance to change its state with no change in temperature
What is the smaller number atomic or mass?
Atomic
What type of change is changing state?
Physical
What is specific latent heat of fusion?
The energy required to change 1kg of solid into 1kg of liquid at the same temperature
What is specific latent heat of vaporisation?
The energy required to chang e1kg of a liquid into 1kg of a gas at the same temperature
What happens to the energy of a substance when it freezes?
It is transferred to the surroundings
What happens to the volume of a gas as pressure increases
Volume decreases
What is Boyle’s Law?
That for a gas at a constant temperature, pressure x volume is also constant
When do we use pV= contestant
If the mass and the temperature of the gas stay the same
How does the temperature of a gas effect the kinetic energy of the molecules?
As the temperature of gas increases kinetic energy increases.
