kinetic particle theroty

• A solid is

  very closely packed in an orderly manner
• A liquis is

  closely packed in a disorderly manner
• A gas is

  very far apart in a disorderly manner
• An solid has

  very strong Attractive Forces Between Particles
• A liquid has less strong Attractive Forces Between Particles
• A gas has very weak Attractive Forces Between Particles
• The kinetic energy of a solid is very low
• the kinetic energy of a liquid particle is low
• the kinetic energy of a gas particle is high
• solids

  vibrate and rotate about fixed positions
• liquids

  slide past one another freely throughout the liquid
• gases

  move quickly and randomly in any direction
• solid has definite shape
• liquid has indefinite shape
• gas has indefinite shape
• solid has definite volume
• liquid has definite volume
• gas has indefinite volume
• solid is not compressable
• liquid is not compressable
• gas is compressable
• conditions that affect the rate of diffusion:

  1. effect of temperature
  2. effect of particle mass
• diffusion is the net movement of particles from an area of high concentration to low concentration
