Learning Outcomes • At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to: • describe the solid, liquid and gaseous states of matter and explain their interconversion in terms of the kinetic particle theory and of the energy changes involved
States of Matter • Matter can exist as a solid, a liquid or a gas. • Kinetic particle theory states that • all matter is made up of tiny particles and • that these particles are in constant random motion.
Changes in States of Matter • The physical state of a substance depends on the temperature and pressure of the surroundings. • For example • At room temperature (25 oC), water is in the liquid state. • At -10 oC, water is in the solid state.
Changes in State • Heat is a form of energy. • When matter is heated, the particles absorb energy. • When matter is cooled, the particles lose energy. • the heat taken in or given out causes the kinetic energy of the particles to change. • Hence, the substance changes it state.
Changes in States of Matter condense melt boil condense freeze sublime
Changes in States of Matter • What happens during melting • particles gain energy, • particles vibrate faster, • particles overcome attractive forces between them, • particles break away from their fixed positions
Changes in States of Matter • What happens during boiling • particles gain kinetic energy, • particles move faster, • particles overcome forces holding them together, • particles spread far apart, • particles move rapidly in all directions
Changes in States of Matter • What happens during freezing • particles lose kinetic energy, • particles move more slowly until they no longer have enough energy to move about freely, • particles settle into fixed position
Changes in States of Matter • What happens during condensation • particles lose energy, • particles move more slowly, • becomes a liquid
Sublimation • Particles at the surface of the solid have enough energy to break away from the solid and escape as a gas
Wake Up Call 1 • When water vapour condenses to water, the particles in the vapour Agains energy. B decrease in density C move closer to each other D mover further apart from each other. Answer: C
Wake Up Call 1 • Three substances have the following properties: X: melts at -180 oC and boils at -167 oC Y: has shiny crystalline surface at r.t.p Z: can flow and take the shape of container at rtp; has boiling point of 160 oC What is the state of each substance at room temperature and pressure? Answer: A
Wake Up Call 1 3 (a) For the following substances state the physical state (solid, liquid or gaseous) they are in at a temperature of 1500 oC.
Wake Up Call 1 • Hence draw and describe the arrangement and movement of particles of copper, calcium and iron at the temperature of 1000 oC. • (i) Copper • Arrangement: • closely packed in orderly manner • Movement: • cannot move, vibrates and rotates about their fixed position • (ii) Calcium • Arrangement • closely packed in random order • Movement • free to move within the liquid, vibrates and slides over one another
Temperature Changes • When matter is heated energy causes temperature to increase. • Temperature stops increasing at melting / boiling points. • Particles absorb the heat energy to vibrate faster and move further apart. • Matter changes state. Figure showing the heating curve of water
