  1. Chapter 3: States of Matter 3. 1 Solids, Liquids and Gasses

  2. Place in your notes

  3. List the states of matter you see in this image

  4. Describing States of Matter • States of Matter (s.o.m.) are classified based on whether their shapes and volumes are definite or variable • They are clues to how the particles within the material are arranged.

  5. Solids • Def: s.o.m in which materials have a definite shape and definite volume • The atoms are packed close together in an orderly arrangement

  6. Liquids • Has the same shape as its container and can be poured into another container • Def: s.o.m. in which a material has a definite volume but no definite shape • The atoms are close but their arrangement is more random than a solids.

  7. Gases • Def: s.o.m in which a material has no definite volume or shape • Gases take the shape of their container • The atoms are arranged randomly and there is space between them

  8. Plasma • Def: s.o.m in which atoms have been stripped of their electrons • Think of it as a gas containing nuclei and electrons • Makes up 99% of the universe • Exists at very high temperatures (10,000,000C)

  9. BEC(Bose Einstein Condesate) • Discovered in 1995 • It exists at a temperature of absolute zero (when all movement of atoms is stopped) • This does not exist anywhere in nature. • Outer space is 3 degrees above absolute zero • It is when a group of atoms behave as though they are a single particle

  10. Kinetic Theory • Kinetic energy: energy an object has due to its motion • The faster something moves the more KE it has • This will help explain why copper is a solid, mercury is a liquid and helium is a gas. • The theory states that all matter is in constant motion.

  11. What has more KE: baseball moving at 80mph or a baseball moving at 78 mph?

  12. Behavior of Gases • Particles in a gas are never at rest • The average gas particle is moving at 1600 km/h • Each moves in a straight line until it collides with another particle or the wall of its container • Kinetic Theory of Gases states: • Particles in a gas are in constant, random motion • The particles are unaffected by each other, unless they collide • The forces of attraction can be ignored because there is so much space between the particles.

  13. How are these images similar?

  14. Behavior of liquids • Particles are more closely packed therefore the force of attraction is applicable • (like student in a crowded hallway) • Liquids take the shape of their container because they can flow to new locations • The volume is constant because forces of attraction keep the particles together

  15. Behavior of solids • Solids have a def. Volume and shape because the particle vibrate about a fixed position • There is a strong force of attraction • Ex: people in a movie theater

  16. Review: • What are the 5 states of matter? • Explain the behavior of gases. • How is the behavior of liquids different from the behavior of solids?
