  • What is the main concept behind the Kinetic Molecular Theory?
    All matter is made up of moving particles
  • Which statement best describes the behavior of particles in higher temperatures according to the Kinetic Molecular Theory?
    They move faster
  • How do particles behave in solids based on the Kinetic Molecular Theory?
    They hardly move and hold a regular pattern
  • What characteristic defines liquids according to the Kinetic Molecular Theory?
    Particles have more energy and can flow
  • How do particles behave in gases according to the Kinetic Molecular Theory
    They are sparse and move freely
  • How does the Kinetic Molecular Theory describe the behavior of particles within matter?
    Moving randomly with kinetic energy
  • Why do gases have the ability to expand and compress?
    Due to high energy
  • What is the main factor that influences the energy of particles according to the theory?
    Temperature
  • What particles hold kinetic energy and move around in random directions according to the Kinetic Molecular Theory?
    Atoms and molecules
  • The Kinetic Molecular Theory states that in low temperature, particles have:
    Less energy
  • Kinetic Molecular Model is used to explain the properties of liquids and solid molecules, as well as the forces of attraction that account for such properties.
  • Solids can be classified as Amorphous and Crystalline
  • Kinetic energy of a particle is the energy needed for the particles to keep moving, which is dependent upon temperature.
  • Temperature and kinetic energy is directly proportional
  • Solids are particles that are tightly packed, vibrating about a fixed position, and have a definite shape and definite volume.
  • Crystalline solids are molecules that are arranged in a geometric pattern.
  • Amorphous solids are molecules that do not have a set pattern of arrangement.
  • Liquids are particles that are tightly packed, but are far enough apart to slide over one another.
  • Gases are particles that are very far apart and move freely, and have an indefinite shape and an indefinite volume
  • Plasma is an ionized gas. It is a very good conductor of electricity and is affected by magnetic fields.
  • Phase change is a change from one state of matter to another. This are physical changes because they do not affect the chemical make up of a substance.
  • Exothermic is heat being released as molecules slow down and move closer together.
  • Endothermic is heat energy being absorbed as molecules speed up and expand
  • Phase diagram illustrates the changes in the phase of a matter under varying temperature and pressure conditions.
  • Intramolecular forces are forces within a molecule
  • Intermolecular force are forces between different molecules
  • Intermolecular forces of attraction pertains to the forces that hold individual particles such as atoms, molecules, or ions together
  • Electronegativity is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom or a functional group to attract electrons toward itself.
  • Nonpolar molecules occur when the lectrons are evenly distributed
  • Polar molecule occur when two atoms do not share electrons equally in a covalent bond. This happens when there is a difference between the electricity values of each atom.
  • What does an exposed proton at the hydrogen end of the water molecule result in?
    Partial positive charge
  • How are electrons shared in a polar covalent bond?
    Unequally
  • What characteristic defines a polar molecule?
    Uneven distribution of charge
  • In a nonpolar covalent bond, how do the electrons behave?
    They spend equal time with both atoms
  • Johannes diderik van der Waals is a dutch physicists and thermodynamicist.
  • Dipole-dipole interaction is an attraction between two polar molecules.
  • Dipole is a polarized molecule having partially positive and negative poles.
  • London dispersion force is the attraction between the instantaneous dipole and the induced dipole. This force exists between any type of molecules over the entire surface of the molecules.
  • Instantaneous dipole exerts an influence on nearby particles. it causes distortion of electron clouds of neighboring molecules also become dipoles. they are called induced dipole.
  • Hydrogen bonding is a weak interaction between a hydrogen atom and a highly electronegative atom, such as fluorine, nitrogen, or oxygen.
