Particle Model of Matter

• What happens to the speed of gas particles when the temperature increases?

  The speed of gas particles increases.
• How does increasing the temperature of a gas affect the frequency of collisions among particles?

  It increases the frequency of collisions among particles.
• What is the relationship between the volume of gas and the frequency of collisions?

  Decreasing the volume of gas leads to more frequent collisions.
• What is the effect of higher gas pressure on particle collisions?

  Higher gas pressure results in more frequent collisions.
• What is the formula for density?

  Density = mass / volume
• How do gases compare to liquids and solids in terms of energy?

  Gases have more energy than liquids or solids.
• What is the arrangement of particles in solids?

  Particles in solids are closely packed together and vibrate in place.
• What is the state of particles in liquids compared to solids?

  Particles in liquids are close together but can move past each other.
• What is the definition of density?


  Density is a measure of the compactness of a substance.
• What happens during sublimation?


  Sublimation is the change of state from solid to gas without a temperature change.
• What is the relationship between internal energy and the states of matter?

  Internal energy is the sum of potential and kinetic energy in a substance.
• What are the changes of state in matter?

  • Melting: solid to liquid
  • Freezing: liquid to solid
  • Condensing: gas to liquid
  • Sublimation: solid to gas without temperature change
• What is the general behavior of particles in gases?

  Particles in gases move freely and have high energy.
• How do the forces of attraction in liquids compare to those in solids?

  Liquids have weaker forces of attraction compared to solids.
• What is the highest density state of matter?

  Solids have the highest density.
• What is the arrangement of particles in gases?

  Particles in gases are far apart and move randomly.
• How does the energy of particles in solids compare to that in liquids?

  Particles in solids have less energy than those in liquids.
• What is the significance of the particle model of matter?

  The particle model explains the behavior and properties of solids, liquids, and gases.
• What is the formula for calculating momentum?

  Momentum = mass × velocity
• What is the effect of temperature on the energy of particles in a substance?

  Higher temperature increases the energy of particles in a substance.
• What is the relationship between mass and volume in the context of density?

  Density is defined as mass divided by volume.
• How do the states of matter differ in terms of particle movement?

  Particles in solids vibrate in place, while those in liquids can move past each other, and gases move freely.
• How does the arrangement of particles in liquids differ from that in gases?

  Liquids have particles that are close together in an irregular arrangement, while gases have particles that are far apart and move randomly.
