Three States of Matter

Solids

• The particles in a solid are packed close together and are fixed in position.

– Although they may vibrate.

• The close packing of the particles results in solids being incompressible.

• The inability of the particles to

move around results in solids

retaining their shape and

volume when placed in a new

container and prevents the

particles from flowing.

• Some solids have their particles arranged

in an orderly geometric pattern.

— we call these crystalline solids.

– Salt and diamonds.

• Other solids have particles that do not

show a regular geometric pattern over a

long range.

— we call these amorphous solids.

– Plastic and glass.

Liquids

• The particles in a liquid are closely packed, but they have some

ability to move around.

• The close packing results in liquids being incompressible.

• The ability of the particles to move allows liquids to take the shape

of their container and to flow. However, they don’t have

enough freedom to escape and expand to fill the container.

Gases

• In the gas state, the particles have complete freedom from

each other.

• The particles are constantly flying around, bumping into each

other and the container.

• In the gas state, there is a lot of empty space between the

particles.

• In an open container, as you heat a liquid the average kinetic energy of the

molecules increases, giving more molecules enough energy to escape the surface.

– So the rate of evaporation increases.

• Eventually, the temperature is high enough for molecules in the interior of the

liquid to escape. A phenomenon we call boiling.

• The amount of heat needed to evaporate one mole liquid is called the

heat of vapourization.

ΔHvap = ΔHcond

Evaporation/Condensation

• The amount of heat needed to melt one mole of a solid is called the

heat of fusion (Melting).

ΔHfus

Fusion is an old term for heating a substance until it melts ( it has

nothing to mdo with nuclear fusion) .

• Since freezing (crystallization) is the opposite process of melting, the

amount of energy transferred is the same, but in the opposite direction.

Melting/Freezing

• Sublimation is a physical change in

which the solid form changes directly

to the gaseous form.

– Without going through the liquid

form.

• Like melting, sublimation is

endothermic.

Sublimation/deposition

ΔHsub

Phase Changes Are Physical Changes

• Boiling = liquid to gas.

• Melting = solid to liquid.

• Subliming = solid to gas.

• Freezing = liquid to solid.

• Condensing = gas to liquid.

• Deposition = gas to solid.

• State changes require heating or cooling

the substance (or change P).

INTERMOLECULAR FORCES

• Caused by distortions in the electron cloud of one

molecule inducing distortion in the electron cloud on

another.

• Distortions in the electron cloud lead to a temporary

dipole.

• The temporary dipoles lead to attractions between

molecules—dispersion forces.

Dispersion forces — All molecules

Physical or Chemical change?

A PHYSICAL CHANGE does not alter the composition or identity of a

substance.

A CHEMICAL CHANGE alters the composition or identity of the

substance(s) involved.

- ice melting

- sugar dissolving in water

- hydrogen gas burning in oxygen gas to form water

H2O Physical verses H2O Chemical

No chemical change occurs when salt water is distilled.(a mixture is separated into its components physically)

Sand in water is a good example for a heterogenous mixture.
