  1. Kinetic Molecular Theory (KMT) Joe Slater and Ed Rodgers

  2. Introduction KMT is found in the Massachusetts Chemistry Frameworks at-- • 1.1 Physical Properties • 1.3 States of Matter • 6.2 Kinetic Molecular Theory

  3. In an honors chemistry curriculum, KMT is used in the following topics . . . • Temperature • Phases of matter • Phase changes • Gas Laws

  4. KMT . . . states that all matter is made up of small particles that are in constant motion. A 3-D structural model of a solid. http://cst-www.nrl.navy.mil/lattice/index.html

  5. Why use SimuLab? SimuLab(s) provides a tour de force of the atomic realm creating visual images of the invisible.

  6. SimuLab enhances the lesson by. . . • providing a rich visual image of the phases of matter • showing the interaction of atoms and molecules • allowing students to manipulate variables; including temperature, pressure, volume, etc.

  7. The user interface for SimuLab consists of. . . • A picture of the particles • A graphic presentation of the data • Selected data tables • Menus used for modifying conditions

  8. SimuLab clarifies the abstract with pictures. Solids are 2-D and portrayed as a regular repeating pattern typical of crystals.

  9. SimuLab reveals the hidden energy matrix of a solid.

  10. With a click, SimuLab can model the vibration of solids with trajectories. Atoms appear as pin points of light until the program is started.

  11. SimuLab also provides quantitative measurement

  12. In Summary, using SimuLab students can . . . Visualize Molecular behavior, Collect data, Graph and predict
