Heating change state

Cards (27)

  • What happens to a substance when it is heated at certain temperatures?
    It changes its state between solid, liquid, and gas.
  • At what temperature does water boil and change from liquid to gas?
    100° C
  • What happens to the temperature of a substance during a change of state?
    The temperature remains constant during the change of state.
  • Why do students often get penalized in exams regarding changes of state?
    They forget that temperature does not change during a change of state.
  • What happens to the kinetic energy of molecules during a change of state?
    The kinetic energy of molecules remains unchanged.
  • What determines the temperature of a substance?
    The temperature is determined by the kinetic energy of its molecules.
  • What happens to the energy supplied to molecules during a change of state?
    The energy is used to weaken or break the bonds between molecules.
  • How are molecules held together in a substance?
    By intermolecular bonds.
  • What analogy is used to describe intermolecular bonds?
    They can be thought of as springs that stretch or contract.
  • What occurs when enough energy is supplied to break the bonds between molecules?
    The bonds will break, leading to a change of state.
  • What happens to the bonds when thermal energy is removed from a substance?
    The bonds will reform.
  • What is an example of a physical process regarding changes of state?
    The breaking and forming of bonds during a change of state.
  • What are the three different states of matter based on molecular arrangement?
    Solids, liquids, and gases.
  • How are molecules arranged in solids?
    Molecules are held together by strong bonds and cannot move much.
  • How are molecules arranged in liquids?
    Molecules are held by weaker bonds and can flow around each other.
  • How are molecules arranged in gases?
    Molecules have next to no bonds and can move freely.
  • What happens during melting and boiling in terms of molecular bonds?
    Bonds are breaking as energy is supplied to change the state.
  • What happens during condensation and freezing in terms of molecular bonds?
    Bonds are reforming as energy is lost.
  • What is sublimation?
    A process where a solid changes directly to a gas.
  • How does evaporation differ from boiling?
    Evaporation occurs slowly without reaching a boiling point.
  • How does evaporation work in terms of energy absorption?
    Liquids take in heat from the surroundings to break bonds.
  • What is a common application of evaporation in cooling the body?
    Sweating helps cool the body by evaporating sweat.
  • How does sweat help in cooling down the body during exercise?
    Sweat takes in heat from the body to evaporate, lowering body temperature.
  • Why does sweat evaporate faster than the surrounding air?
    It actively takes in heat from the body for evaporation.
  • What is the purpose of the Launchpad learning platform mentioned in the material?
    To help students achieve top results in their exams through interactive learning.
  • What types of resources does the Launchpad learning platform offer?
    Interactive quizzes, easy-to-follow videos, and AI tutor support.
  • What is the goal of the Launchpad learning platform?
    To motivate students and support them in their learning journey.
