Chapter 1 (Kinetic Particle


theory) ✔️
Content
Definition
The Kinetic particle theory states that all matter is made up of tiny particles
and that these particles are in constant random motion

What are the three states of matter

Solid

Diagram

Chapter 1 (Kinetic Particle theory) ✔️ 1


Arrangement of particles
Closely packed in an orderly manner

movement of particles
Vibrate and rotate about their fixed position

Forces of attraction between particles


Very strong

kinetic energy of particles


Very slow

Liquids

Diagram

Arrangement of particles

Arranged in a disorderly manner; closely packed (less close than in


solid)

movement of particles

Slide over each other about their fixed position

Forces of attraction between particles

Strong but weaker than solid

kinetic energy of particles


More kinetic than in a solid

Gases

Diagram

Chapter 1 (Kinetic Particle theory) ✔️ 2


Arrangement of particles

Randomly spread very far apart from one another

movement of particles

Move about rapidly in any direction

Forces of attraction between particles

Very weak; weaker than in liquid

kinetic energy of particles

A lot of kinetic energy

Change of state

definition

Matter can change from one state to another. Changes in state is a physical
process and is reversible

What are the 6 physical changes in state of matter:

Energy taken in (4)

Melting

Boiling

Evaporation

Sublimation

Energy given out (2)

Condensation

Freezing

Heating and cooling curve

Chapter 1 (Kinetic Particle theory) ✔️ 3


Heating curve

ANS TEMPLATE

What happens when the substance starts to heat

the particles will gain kinetic energy and move faster

When will the temperature stop increasing

Temperature increases until it reaches melting/boiling point.

What do the energy used when it reaches melting/boiling point

They are used to overcome forces of attraction between the


particles. Therefore, kinetic energy remains constant. Therefore,
temperature remains constant

Cooling curve

Diagram

Chapter 1 (Kinetic Particle theory) ✔️ 4


question

What happened to the particles when it is cold

do the Temperature stop decreasing

Freezing and condensation

Whats the reason for the stop of the decrease of temperature

Thermal energy is given out to the surroundings and the


particles are are attracted to each other, kinetic energy of
particles remain constant

How is kinetic energy of particle related to temperature

Kinetic energy is proportional to temperature

During state change, KE remains Constant

Boiling VS evaporation

Temperature

Boiling
at boiling point

Evaporation

Chapter 1 (Kinetic Particle theory) ✔️ 5


at any temperature

where would it happen

Boiling

throughout the liquid

evaporation

only at the surface of the liquid

Speed

Boiling
fast

evaporation

slow

Bubble formation

Boiling

Yes, rise to the surface

evaporation

no

Diffusion

Definition
Is the net movement of particles from a region of higher concentration to a
region of lower concentration

Factors affecting rate of diffusion

Relative molecular mass (mr)

trend

Lower the Mr, the faster the gas particles diffuse

Temperature

trend

Chapter 1 (Kinetic Particle theory) ✔️ 6


The higher the temperature, the higher rate of diffusion

Chapter 1 (Kinetic Particle theory) ✔️ 7
