Topic 1
The particulate nature of matter
1.1- The states of matterMatter substance that has mass and occupies space.
Matter can exist as a solid, a liquid or a gas.
These three forms of matter are called the states of matter.
Property Solid Liquid Gas
Shape fixed not fixed not fixed
Volume fixed fixed not fixed
Compressibility can’t be compressed
can’t be compressed
can be compressed
1.2- Kinetic particle theoryThe kinetic particle theory states that:
“all matter is made up of tiny particles and that these particles are in constant random motion”
The kinetic particle theory is used to:◦describe the states of matter◦explains the differences in the properties of solid, liquids,
gases◦explains the changes in state of matter.
Characteristic Solid Liquid Gas
Arrangement of particles
► orderly► closely packed
► disorderly► less closely packed
► disorderly► very far apart
Attractive forces between particles
very strong strong very weak
Kinetic energy of particles
very low low high
Motion of particles
vibrate and rotate about fixed position
move freely throughout the
liquid
move rapidly in any direction
1.3- Changes of stateMatter can change from one state to another.
When matter is heated or cooled, the heat energy taken in or given out causes the kinetic energy of the particles to change. As a result, there is a change in state.
Melting -1-Changes of state from a solid to a liquid.
The temperature at which a solid becomes a liquid is called its melting point.
Different substances have different melting points.
Substance oxygen ethanol ice iron
Melting point/0C
-219 -114 0 1535
Melting -2-
What happens to the particles of a solid that is heated until it melts?
1. Heat energy is absorbed by particles of a solid.2. Heat energy is converted into kinetic energy.3. The particles vibrates, until the vibrations of the particles
overcome the forces of attraction between them.4. The particles begin to break away from their fixed positions.5. Finally, all of the particles aren’t in their fixed positions.6. The substance is now a liquid.

A-BThe temperature of solid increases until it reaches its melting point. B solid starts to melt.
B-CDuring melting process, temperature
of substance remains constant even though heating continues.
A mixture of solid and liquid exists here.
C-D All solids has melted and
temperature of liquid rises as heating continues.

Freezing -1-Changes of state from a liquid to a solid.
The temperature at which a liquid becomes a solid is called its freezing point.
A pure substance melts and freezes at the same temperature.
Freezing -2-
What happens to the particles of a liquid that is cooled until it freezes?
1. Heat energy is given out by particles of a liquid.2. The particles lose kinetic energy and begin to move more slowly.3. The particles are no longer have enough energy to move freely.4. The particles start to settle into fixed positions.5. Finally, all of the particles settled into fixed positions.6. The substance is now a solid.

P-QThe temperature of liquid decreases until it reaches its freezing point. Q liquid starts to freeze.
Q-RDuring the process, temperature of
substance remains constant even though cooling continues.
A mixture of solid and liquid exists here.
R-SAll liquids has frozen and
temperature of solid drops as cooling continues.
BoilingChanges of state from a liquid to a gas.
The temperature at which a liquid boils is called its boiling point.
Different substances have different boiling points.

Evaporation -1-Changes of state from a liquid to a gas at temperatures lower
than its boiling point.
Evaporation occurs because some particles have enough energy to escape as a gas from the surface of the liquid.
Liquids that evaporate quickly at room temperature are called volatile liquids.
They usually have boiling points just above room temperature.
Examples: perfume and petrol
Evaporation -2-
Boiling Evaporation
occurs only at boiling point occurs at room temperatures below boiling point
occurs throughout the liquid occurs only at the surface of the liquid
occurs rapidly occurs slowly
Condensation Sublimation
Changes of state from a gas to a liquid.
Changes of state from a solid to a gas.
Occurs because particles at the surface of the solid have enough energy to break away from the solid and escape as a gas.
Ex: iodine, dry ice

1.4-Diffusion
DiffusionDiffusion is the movement of particles from a region of higher
concentration to a region of lower concentration.
Diffussion does not occur in solids.
Diffusion in liquids is much slower than in gases (because the particles move slower in the liquid phase than in the gas phase).
The rate of diffusion is affected by relative molecular mass and temperature.
Ar /Mr Rate of diffusion
